Comparison of Pleural Fluid Adenosine Deaminase with the Lactate Dehydrogenase/Adenosine Deaminase Ratio in Differentiating Tubercular Pleural Effusion from Non-tubercular Effusion
Background: Pleural effusions are caused by various conditions, including tuberculosis and malignancies. Accurate differentiation between tuberculous pleural effusion (TPE) and non-tuberculous pleural effusion (NTPE) is crucial for effective treatment outcomes. While adenosine deaminase (ADA) levels...
