The diagnostic accuracy of HE4 in the differential diagnosis of pleural effusions.
Authors: Bérgamo S, Trapé J, González-García L, González-Fernández C, Vergara C, la-Torre ND, Bosch-Presegué L, Otero-Viñas M, Catot S, Crespo-Casal M, Rives-Jimenez J, Arnau A, Costa R, Cugat JR, Gonzalez-Sánchez F, Pla-Salas X, Sant F. Clin Chim Acta. 2025 Jan 30;566:120027. doi:10.1016/j.cca.2024.120027 Read More Abstract Background: Pleural effusions are challenging to diagnose, with approximately 20-50% of malignant effusions not diagnosed by cytology. Human epididymal protein 4 (HE4) may be useful in the differential diagnosis of pleural effusions. In serum, this biomarker shows false-positive results in some benign diseases. The aim of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic utility [...]
Utility of human epididymis protein 4 in the differential diagnosis of ascites
Authors: Bérgamo S, Trapé J, González-García L, González-Fernández C, Vergara C, de-la-Torre N, Trujillo G, Estivill D, Álvarez-González MA, Bosch L, Otero-Viñas M, Bergós C, Catot S, Ruiz-Hidalgo D, Ros S, Sant F Clin Biochem. 2023 Oct;120:110645. doi:10.1016/j.clinbiochem.2023.110645. Read More Abstract Background and aims: Human epididymal protein 4 (HE4) may be a useful tool in the differential diagnosis of malignant ascites. The aim of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic utility of HE4 for detecting malignant ascites, taking into account the possible false positives identified with adenosine deaminase (ADA), C-reactive protein (CRP), % polynuclear cells (%PMN) and [...]
