Pleural diseases related to metastatic malignancies
Open accessAbstract
Pleural effusions associated with malignancy (either malignant or paramalignant) pose diagnostic and therapeutic dilemmas for the clinician. This article reviews the common causes of malignant and paramalignant pleural effusions, pathogenesis, clinical presentation, chest radiography, pleural fluid characteristics, diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment. Talc, used either by poudrage or slurry, is the most effective agent used for pleurodesis. Talc, which needs to be sterilized, has no clinically important immediate, short-term or long-term adverse effects.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
