U.S., June 5 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07003204) titled 'Neutrophil-to Lymphocyte and Monocyte-to-Lymphocyte Ratios in Exudative Pleural Effusion' on May 26.
Brief Summary: Exudative pleural effusion (EPE) presents a diagnostic challenge, requiring accurate biomarkers to predict outcomes and guide treatment. The neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and monocyte-to-lymphocyte ratio (MLR) in pleural fluid are emerging as potential prognostic markers. We aimed to assess the diagnostic and prognostic utility of pleural fluid NLR and MLR in EPE.
