| Core Tip |
Maranhão et al introduce a standardized pleural adenosine deaminase (P-ADA) cutoff (≥ 9.00 U/L) for diagnosing inflammatory pleural effusions, validated via rigorous statistical analysis in a Brazilian cohort. This addresses inconsistencies in international reference values and links P-ADA to purinergic signaling and ADA2 isoform activation in macrophages and lymphocytes. The study emphasizes P-ADA’s clinical utility as a non-invasive, cost-effective biomarker to reduce the need for invasive procedures (e.g., thoracentesis) and improve diagnostic accuracy in resource-limited settings. Its integration into clinical workflows could streamline management, reduce healthcare costs, and enable early treatment stratification, pending multicenter validation for broader global application. |
