Differentiation of Cardiac from Noncardiac Pleural Effusions in Cats using Second‐Generation Quantitative and Point‐of‐Care NT‐proBNP Measurements [PDF]
Background Pleural effusion is a common cause of dyspnea in cats. N‐terminal pro‐B‐type natriuretic peptide (NT‐proBNP) measurement, using a first‐generation quantitative ELISA, in plasma and pleural fluid differentiates cardiac from noncardiac causes of

Dynamic and volumetric variables reliably predict fluid responsiveness in a porcine model with pleural effusion [PDF]
Background: The ability of stroke volume variation (SVV), pulse pressure variation (PPV) and global end-diastolic volume (GEDV) for prediction of fluid responsiveness in presence of pleural effusion is unknown.

A 90-year-old man was admitted for progressive dyspnea. His medical history included hypertension and chronic myeloid leukemia diagnosed 10 years before and treated with dasatinib. Physical examination revealed pitting edema of the legs and dullness to percussion in the right chest. Laboratory test results were clinically relevant for white blood cells

Pleural fluid investigations for pleural infections
Over 1.5 million patients are admitted to hospital with pneumonia in the United States each year. Up to 50% of them can develop a parapneumonic effusion which is associated with higher mortality. The incidence of pleural infection continues to rise, particularly in the elderly and those with comorbidities.

Use of a hybrid intelligence decision tree to identify mature B‐cell neoplasms
Abstract Background Mature B‐cell neoplasms are challenging to diagnose due to their heterogeneity and overlapping clinical and biological features. In this study, we present a new workflow strategy that leverages a large amount of flow cytometry data and an artificial intelligence approach to classify these neoplasms. Methods By combining mathematical
