Multi‐Omics Analysis Reveals Differentially Expressed Proteins and Metabolites in Malignant Pleural Effusion

Thoracic Cancer, Volume 17, Issue 14, July 2026.
Integrated proteomic and metabolomic profiling identified distinct molecular signatures differentiating malignant from benign pleural effusions. IDH1, l‐glutamine, creatine, and sarcosine, together with alterations in arginine and proline metabolism and glutathione metabolism, may represent potential biomarkers for the discrimination of malignant and ...

Predictors of survival in non‐small cell lung cancer patients with pleural effusion undergoing thoracoscopy

Thoracic Cancer, 2019
Background Malignant pleural effusion (MPE) predicts advanced disease and poor prognosis, and is usually diagnosed by medical thoracoscopy. It remains unclear whether the various representations visualized on thoracoscopy are reliable prognostic factors.
