Diagnostic Reliability of Pleural Fluid Protein Estimation

open access: yes, 1979
In a series of 86 elderly patients the measurement of pleural fluid protein was found to be of limited value in distinguishing exudates from transudates, although levels above 49 gil were all found to be exudates. However, the difference in mean pleural

Validity of pleural lactate dehydrogenase measurements in assessment of pleural effusions [PDF]

open access: yesUniversa Medicina, 2012
Background Pleural effusions are classified into transudates and exudates based on Light’s criteria, but the main disadvantage of Light’s criteria is the misclassification of transudates as exudates in about 20% of cases.

Levels of Cathepsins S and H in Pleural Fluids of Inflammatory and Neoplastic Origin

open access: yesThe International Journal of Biological Markers, 2009
Cathepsins S and H are present in immune cells and tissues and may play a role in the activation of an adoptive immune response. Our goal was to assess their protein levels in pleural fluids from 82 patients who underwent thoracentesis or thoracoscopy ...

Is albumin gradient or fluid to serum albumin ratio better than the pleural fluid lactate dehydroginase in the diagnostic of separation of pleural effusion?

open access: yesBMC Pulmonary Medicine, 2002
Background To determine the accuracy of serum-effusion albumin gradient (SEAG) and pleural fluid to serum albumin ratio (ALBR) in the diagnostic separation of pleural effusion into transudate and exudate and to compare SEAG and ALBR with pleural fluid ...
