Role of pleural fluid adenosine deaminase in aetiological diagnosMD TIEN
This study evaluated the diagnostic value of measuring adenosine deaminase (ADA) levels in the pleural fluid of 50 patients with pleural effusions. The results showed that ADA levels were above 36 IU/L in all 41 patients diagnosed with tuberculosis. In the 8 patients diagnosed with malignancy, ADA levels were above 18.5 IU/L. One patient with hypoproteinemia had an ADA level of 8.21 IU/L. With a cutoff of 36 IU/L, ADA had a sensitivity of 100% and specificity of 22.3% for tuberculosis, and a sensitivity of 87.5% and specificity of 20.1% for malignancy. ADA levels above 100 IU/L were found
Thoracic outlet syndrome (TOS) occurs when the blood vessels or nerves in the thoracic outlet area between the neck and armpit are compressed. The thoracic outlet contains several narrow spaces through which the nerves and vessels pass. Physical therapy is the primary treatment for TOS and aims to open the spaces and correct shoulder positioning. Surgery to remove part of the first rib may be considered if physical therapy fails or for complications involving blood vessels or nerves. Proper diagnosis involves patient examination maneuvers to reproduce symptoms and imaging tests to identify anatomical abnormalities.
Thrombin generation profiles in deep venous thrombosisMD TIEN
This document summarizes a study that used numerical modeling to simulate thrombin generation profiles based on coagulation factor levels from participants in the Leiden Thrombophilia Study. The simulations evaluated thrombin generation parameters in relation to risk of deep vein thrombosis. The study found the greatest risk association with the maximum rate of thrombin generation, with those in the highest 90th percentile having a 2.6-fold increased risk. Oral contraceptive use was also found to significantly shift thrombin generation profiles and interact with underlying prothrombotic traits, suggesting it may identify individuals at higher risk. The researchers conclude that thrombin generation profiles based on an individual's blood composition could serve as a useful predictive marker for thrombosis risk.

This document discusses various types of toe and partial foot amputations. It begins by explaining how amputations alter ambulation depending on the amount and location of tissue removed. It then describes the anatomy of the foot and toes. The main types of amputations discussed are phalangeal, transmetatarsal, and various partial foot amputations. For each type, the document explains the procedure and important anatomical and functional considerations.
Thromboangiitis obliterans (Buerger's disease)MD TIEN
Thromboangiitis obliterans, also known as Buerger's disease, is a non-atherosclerotic inflammatory disease that causes segmental occlusion of small and medium arteries and veins in the extremities. It most commonly affects the hands, feet, legs and arms of middle-aged men. Symptoms include claudication, pain at rest, ischemic ulcers and gangrene. Diagnosis requires a history of tobacco use, distal extremity ischemia, exclusion of other diseases, and consistent angiographic findings. The disease is most prevalent in Asia and among Ashkenazi Jews. Cessation of tobacco use is the primary treatment.
The document summarizes new guidelines from the American College of Chest Physicians (ACCP) on antithrombotic and thrombolytic therapy. Key points include:
1) The guidelines provide comprehensive recommendations for preventing and treating thrombosis in pregnant women, children, and perioperative/postoperative patients.
2) For pregnant women, the guidelines recommend stopping vitamin K antagonists before 6 weeks of gestation but continuing them for some with mechanical heart valves. Low molecular weight heparin or unfractionated heparin should be substituted for others.
3) Recommendations for preventing and treating thrombosis in children have been expanded significantly.

This document provides guidance on evaluating and diagnosing pleural effusions based on laboratory tests of pleural fluid obtained from thoracentesis. It outlines the indications for thoracentesis and initial labs to differentiate transudative from exudative effusions and identify the cause. For exudates, tests include cell count, cultures, cytology and others depending on suspected infection or cancer. Findings that suggest specific diagnoses like transudate, empyema or hemothorax are also provided.
