Abstract

The aimed of this study is to compare the diagnostic value of pleural fluid total cholesterol and Light’s criteria to determine exudate or transudate. The samples used in this cross-sectional study were pleural fluid specimens sent to the Clinical Pathology Laboratory of the Dr.Wahidin Sudirohusodo Hospital Makassar during the period of August-September 2016. Data were grouped according to the type of effusion then statistically analyzed using nonparametric Mann Whitney U-test. The result of this study showed from 55 samples, there were 22 transudates and 33 exudates. The mean total cholesterol levels of exudate is higher than transudate (p=0.006). By using cut-off value of total cholesterol pleural fluid 56 mg/dL, it had sensitivity 72.7%; specificity 78.8%; Positive Predictive Value (PPV) 81.3% and Negative Predictive Value (NPV) 69.6% while Light’s criteria had sensitivity 97%; specificity 63.6%; PPV 80% and NPV 93.3%. Pleural fluid total cholesterol level with cut-off 56 mg/dL is proposed to be used for differentiating exudate and transudate because it is easier and more simple to perform than Light’s criteria.

Abstract

Previous researches have demonstrated associations between high obesity indices with increased risk of metabolic and cardiovascular disorders. It has also been established that abnormalities of lipoprotein metabolism have an important role in atherogenesis and that non-menopausal females are protected from atherosclerotic cardiovascular events relative to menopausal females and males. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between obesity indices such as body mass index (BMI), waist circumference (WC), body fat percentage (BF), and visceral fat (VF) with apolipoprotein B/apolipoprotein A1 ratio in non-menopausal Indonesian adult females. A total of 75 non-menopausal Indonesian adult females were included as subjects in this cross-sectional study. Measured indices included BMI, WC, BF, and VF. Measurement of apolipoprotein B and A1 were performed by immunoturbidimetry, followed by calculation of the ratio. A cut-off value of 0.8 was used to define high apolipoprotein B/apolipoprotein A1 ratio. Apolipoprotein B/Apolipoprotein A1 ratio was significantly correlated with BMI (r=0.384, p=0.001), WC (r=0.363, p=0.001), BF (r=0.385, p=0.001), VF (r=0.380, p=0.001). The area under curve of BF (0.754) was slightly larger than BMI (0.722), VF (0.721), and WC (0.686) in predicting high apolipoprotein B/apolipoprotein A1 ratio. A positive significant correlation was observed between obesity indices with the apolipoprotein B/apolipoprotein A1 ratio. Obesity indices could be used to predict high apolipoprotein B/apolipoprotein A1 ratio.
