DOI: 10.1097/mcp.0000000000000934

Abstract: Purpose of review Approximately 36–57% of cases of pneumonia are associated with a parapneumonic effusion (PPE). It begins as sterile effusion, which can quickly evolve to a fibrinopurulent stage with evidence of infection called complicated… read more here.

DOI: 10.1172/jci.insight.127470

Abstract: BACKGROUND Current dosing of intrapleural fibrinolytic therapy (IPFT) in adults with complicated parapneumonic effusion (CPE) / empyema is empiric, as dose-escalation trials have not previously been conducted. We hypothesized that LTI-01 (scuPA), which is relatively… read more here.

Published in 2025 at "Journal of Nepal Health Research Council"

DOI: 10.33314/jnhrc.v23i02.4926

Abstract: BACKGROUND Complicated parapneumonic effusion (PPE) and empyema require intercostal drainage (ICD), failure of which usually leads to surgery. Intrapleural instillation of fibrinolytic agents (IFT) enhance pleural drainage and reduce the need for surgery. This study… read more here.
