Bilateral Pleural Effusion in Rheumatoid Arthritis: Think Beyond the Obvious
(2022)An 86-year-old woman, non-smoker, with a medical history of rheumatoid arthritis for 20 years (stable at 5mg of prednisolone) was referred from a peripheral hospital to the Department of Respiratory Medicine of our tertiary ... -
Discrimination of exudative pleural effusions based on pleural adenosine deaminase (Ada)-c-reactive protein (crp) levels, and their combination: An observational prospective study
(2021)(1) Background: Malignant (MPE), parapneumonic (PPE) and tuberculous (TPE) pleural effusions constitute common causes of pleurisy. Discriminating among them is usually challenging. C-reactive protein (CRP) and adenosine ... -
Pleural transport physiology: Insights from biological marker measurements in transudates
(2011)Aims: The aim of this study was to evaluate the physicochemical properties of the pleural mesothelial barrier and of the biological markers that facilitate or eliminate the passage of molecules through the pleura. Methods ... -
Repeatability of pleural adenosine deaminase measurements in diagnostic evaluation of pleural effusions
(2018)Background: A follow-up thoracentesis is proposed in suspected atypical tuberculosis cases. The study aimed to define the variability of pleural ADA values across repeated thoracenteses in different types of pleural effusions ...
