Abstract:

Background. We performed prospective validation of the cancer ratio (serum LDH : pleural ADA ratio), previously reported as predictive of malignant effusion retrospectively, and assessed the effect of combining it with “pleural lymphocyte count” in diagnosing malignant pleural effusion (MPE).Methods. Prospective cohort study of patients hospitalized with lymphocyte predominant exudative pleural effusion in 2015.Results. 118 patients, 84 (71.2%) having MPE and 34 (28.8%) having tuberculous pleural effusion (TPE), were analysed. In multivariate logistic regression analysis, cancer ratio, serum L

<strong>Abstract</strong> <strong>Introduction</strong>: The malignant pleural effusion is one of the most common causes of exudative pleural effusion. There is no accurate and commonly accepted biochemical marker of MPE, hence using common parameters two ratio serum LDH: pleural fluid ADA (cancer ratio) and cancer ratio: pleural fluid lymphocyte count (cancer ratio plus) derived and their efficacy in identification of MPE is studied. <strong>Methods</strong>: 60 undiagnosed pleural effusion patients were studied in a hospital based cross sectional observational analytical study.

Abstract:

Predicting survival of patients with malignant pleural effusions (MPEs) is notoriously difficult. A robust prognostic marker can guide clinical decision making. The neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) in blood has been shown to predict survival in many cancers. Pleural fluid bathes the malignant pleural tissues, thus the NLR of the pleural fluid may reflect more closely the local tumour environment. The objective of this study was to explore the prognostic significance of pleural effusion NLR for MPE. We analysed matched effusion and blood from 117 patients with malignant and 24 with benign p

Abstract:

Background: Pleural effusion is caused by various disease, including tuberculosis infection and malignancy. To determine the etiology, immunologic parameters are needed to distinguish tuberculous and malignant pleural effusions, including pleural fluid interleukin-6 (IL-6), neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), and monocyte-lymphocyte ratio (MLR).Methods: This was a cross-sectional study, conducted at Sanglah General Hospital in Denpasar from March 2020 to September 2020. Pleural fluid IL-6 and leucocyte differential count were measured from subjects with tuberculous and malignant pleural effusio

Abstract:

Background Differentiating between tuberculosis and malignancy as the cause of an exudative lymphocyte predominant pleural effusion is difficult due to similarities in the cellular and biochemical characteristics of the pleural fluid in both conditions. Microbiological tests in tubercular pleural effusions have a poor diagnostic yield, and the long turnaround time for results prevents an early diagnosis. The diagnosis of malignant pleural effusion (MPE) is hampered by a variable yield of pleural fluid cytology and closed pleural biopsy and the fact that thoracoscopy may not be readily availabl

Abstract:

Evoked from asbestos-induced inflammation, pleural mesothelioma represents a fatal diagnosis. Therapy ranges from nihilism to aggressive multimodality regimens. However, it is still unclear who ultimately benefits from which treatment. We aimed to re-challenge inflammatory-related biomarkers’ prognostic value in times of modern immune-oncology and lung-sparing surgery. The biomarkers (leukocytes, hemoglobin, platelets, neutrophils, lymphocytes, monocytes, neutrophil–lymphocyte ratio (NLR), lymphocyte–monocyte ratio (LMR), platelet–lymphocyte ratio (PLR), C-reactive protein (CRP)) and clinical

Abstract:

Osteopontin (OPN) and the ratio of absolute neutrophil to absolute lymphocyte counts (NLR) have been reported as possible prognostic biomarkers. These were studied with other clinical/ laboratory variables in a mixed surgical/non-surgical MPM population to define independent predictors of survival (OS) and progression (TTP). Methods: Forty-four MPM patients (12 F, 32M; 26 cytoreduction, 18 no cytoreduction; 31 epithelial, 13 non-epithelial; 15 Stage I/I
