Dr. E. Garcia-Pachon, Pl. del Pont, 1-4-2, E-03201 Elche, Alicante (Spain), Fax (Hospital Vega Baja) 34 6 677 60 60 Dear Sir, Recently, Berkman et al. [ 1 ] reported on a patient with a pleural effusion attributed to pyelonephritis. Although this is one possible diagnosis, we wish to propose an alternative diagnostic possibility: urinothorax. Urinothorax is a rare cause of pleural effusion seco...
BACKGROUND Children living with HIV who are not diagnosed in infancy often remain undiagnosed until they present with advanced disease. Provider-initiated testing and counselling (PITC) in health facilities is recommended for high-HIV-prevalence settings, but it is unclear whether this approach is sufficient to achieve universal coverage of HIV testing. We aimed to investigate the change in com...
The differentiation of pleural effusions as exudates or transudates is the first step in the diagnosis of pleural effusions. The aim of this study was to evaluate the value of adenosine deaminase (ADA) concentration in the pleural effusions for differentiating exudates from transudates. Sixty indoor patients, admitted to our hospital, having pleural effusions and suffering from varying etiologi...
tant in terms of further investigations and long term outcome. The American Thoracic Society guidelines on the management of malignant pleural effusion, published in 2000, estimated the incidence in the US to be between 80 000 and 160 000 new cases each year. Despite the seemingly clear distinction between exudates and transudates, the clinical reality of determining the cause of a pleural effu...
Pulmonary embolism (PE) is the fourth cause of pleural effusions, after pneumonia, neoinfiltrates and tuberculosis. Several questions are yet unanswered: are the pleural effusions in PE exudates or transudates, what is their size, are they unilateral or bilateral, are they only haemorrhagic, etc. The aim of this study is to determine the frequency, side, size, biochemical and cytological charac...
OBJECTIVE Beside the major effect of acute thrombus formation, little is known about the interaction of platelets with the coronary endothelium in an ischaemia-reperfusion situation. The present study was designed to investigate, separately, the consequences of platelet adhesion and degranulation during myocardial reperfusion. METHODS Isolated guinea pig hearts perfused with Krebs-Henseleit b...
Lactoferrin was analysed with an ELISA in pleural effusions from 21 patients with malignant exudative effusions (15 carcinomas and 6 mesotheliomas), 12 patients with non-malignant exudative effusions of unknown aetiology, 11 patients with transudative effusions due to congestive heart failure, 12 patients with exudative effusions secondary to infection, and 2 patients with tuberculous effusions...
