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.

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: Tuberculosis continues to be an important health problem globally. The bacteriological confirmation of diagnosis in extrapulmonary tuberculosis patients is more difficult because most of the cases of extrapulmonary tuberculosis are paucibacillary in nature. In this study we have compared the pleural fluid ADA levels with PCR for MTB in pleural fluid to confirm the diagnosis of tuberculosis in the pleural fluid.Methods: The study was done over two years and a total of 106 patients with a clinico-radiological diagnosis of pleural effusion were enrolled for the study.

Abstract:
Chylothorax is a rare disease (1-2% of pleural effusions), with a prevalence between 1/8600 and 1/15,000 births. It is characterized by the presence of chyle in the pleural cavity. Three categories of chylothorax are known: congenital, idiopathic or traumatic (usually postoperative) chylothorax. We report the observation of a 3-year-old child with idiopathic chylothorax revealed by respiratory symptoms, with pleural effusion and ipsilateral lung collapse on chest x-ray and CT. Cytology and chemical analysis of pleural fluid showed exudative fluid with a chyous appearance, high cell count (2800

Abstract:
Persistent pleural effusions (PPEf) represent a known complication of orthotopic liver transplant (OLT). However, their clinical relevance is not well described. We evaluated the clinical, biochemical, and cellular characteristics of post-OLT PPEf and assessed their relationship with longitudinal outcomes. We performed a retrospective cohort study of OLT recipients between 2006 and 2015. Included patients had post-OLT PPEf, defined by effusion persisting &gt;30 days after OLT and available pleural fluid analysis. PPEf were classified as transudates or exudates (ExudLight) by Light’s criteria.

Abstract:
Abstract Recurrent exudative pleural effusion of unclear etiology is a commonly encountered entity with a wide differential diagnosis. Expedient evaluation and diagnosis are necessary. Pleural fluid analysis is the first step because a lymphocyte-predominant exudate is most commonly associated with malignancy or tuberculosis. Cytology is helpful, but sensitivity decreases with each subsequent sampling. Advanced cross-sectional imaging with CT of the chest is needed if a diagnosis is not made after initial evaluation and analysis of the pleural fluid. This will help in differentiating between b

Abstract:
Pleural tuberculosis (TB) is the second most common extra-pulmonary form of TB, following tuberculous lymphadenitis. Pleural TB is most likely to occur due to the rupture of a subpleural caseous focus within the lung or, sometimes, due to the spread of infection from a lymph node into the pleural space. In pleural TB, it has been found that the delayed type of hypersensitivity (DTH) is responsible for the development of pleural effusion. Clinical manifestations mainly include pleuritic chest pain, nonproductive cough, anorexia, weight loss, night sweats, and in severe cases, dyspnea. Manifesta
