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 ...

A Three‐Step Diagnostic Strategy for Malignant Pleural Effusions
ABSTRACT New diagnostic tools, such as high fluorescence cells (HFc) and tumor markers (TMs), have emerged in the quest to accurately diagnose malignant pleural effusion (MPE). This study evaluated the diagnostic performance of the HFc and TMs combination.

Vascular endothelial growth factor in diagnosis of pleural effusion
Background: Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is a glycoprotein which is an important mediator of angiogenesis and vascular permeability. Different VEGF levels were found in carcinomatous, inflammatory and tuberculous pleural effusions, implying ...
