The Predictive Value of Eosinophil Cationic Protein and Lactate Dehydrogenase in Asthma: A Comparative Study of Serum Versus Sputum
BACKGROUND: Serum and sputum eosinophil cationic protein (ECP) levels are correlated with asthma disease severity. OBJECTIVE: To establish a diagnostic accuracy of ECP and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) in serum (indirectly) and sputum (directly) as inflammatory markers in asthma. PATIENTS AND METHODS:...
