Diagnostic Significance of Combining Telomerase Activity with CYFRA21-1 Level in Differentiating Malignant Pleural Effusion Caused by Lung Cancer from Benign Pleural Effusio

Diagnostic Significance of Combining Telomerase Activity with CYFRA21-1 Level in Differentiating Malignant Pleural Effusion Caused by Lung Cancer from Benign Pleural Effusio

Background and objective Telomerase and CYFRA21-1 may be positively expressed in malignant pleural effusion, but the sensitivity and specificity of single tumor marker were low.
