Cholesterol in the separation of transudates and exudates
Current Opinion in Pulmonary Medicine, 2001The Light criteria represent the most acceptable method to separate transudates and exudates. However, approximately 10% of patients with transudates, especially those with congestive heart disease, are misdiagnosed with these criteria. To improve diagnostic accuracy, many biochemical markers have been proposed as alternatives to differentiate ...

Basic determinants of epicardial transudation
American Journal of Physiology-Heart and Circulatory Physiology, 1997Myocardial edema formation, which has been shown to compromise cardiac function, and increased epicardial transudation (pericardial effusion) have been shown to occur after elevation of myocardial venous and lymphatic outflow pressures. The purposes of this study were to estimate the hydraulic conductance and osmotic reflection coefficient for the ...

, 2013 Transudative Pleural Effusions
Clinics in Chest Medicine, 1985A transudative pleural effusion develops when the systemic factors influencing the formation or absorption of the pleural fluid are altered. The pleural surfaces are not involved by the primary pathologic process. The diagnosis of transudative effusion is simple to establish by examining the characteristics of the pleural fluid. Transudates have all of

Hepatic transudation barrier properties
Microcirculation, 2018AbstractObjectiveFluid and protein continuously transude from the surface of the liver. Despite a common understanding that transudation plays a critical role in hepatic interstitial and peritoneal fluid balance, transudation from the entire liver has not been studied.

Diagnosis and Management of Pleural Transudates
Archivos de Bronconeumología (English Edition), 2017Various clinical trials have been published on the optimal clinical management of patients with pleural exudates, particularly those caused by malignant tumors, while little information is available on the diagnosis and treatment of pleural transudates.

Discriminating Between Transudates and Exudates
Clinics in Chest Medicine, 2006The dichotomous classification of pleural fluid as a transudate or an exudate simplifies diagnostic efforts in determining the cause of pleural effusions. Multiple pleural fluid tests are available to discriminate between these two classes of effusions. Tests commonly used in clinical practice depend on the detection in pleural fluid of large-molecular-
