I don’t miss you, still I will take a car to be with you
I don’t know you, of course you think you know me
I don’t want you
So why should I compete with other guys?
I don’t love you, no
I think I’ll take a long way down from here

Differentiation of Exudates from Transudates

A transudative pleural effusion occurs when pleural fluid accumulates because of an imbalance between the hydrostatic and oncotic pressures. The leading causes of transudative pleural effusions are congestive heart failure, cirrhosis, and pulmonary embolism. In contrast, an exudative pleural effusion occurs when the local factors influencing the accumulation of pleural fluid are altered. The leading causes of exudative effusions are pneumonia, cancer, and pulmonary embolism.

The first step in the evaluation is to determine whether an effusion is transudative or exudative.6 If it is exudative, more diagnostic tests are required in order to determine the cause of the local disease, whereas if it is transudative, the physician must establish or rule out a diagnosis of congestive heart failure, cirrhosis, or pulmonary embolism.

For the past several decades, transudates have been differentiated from exudates according to Light's criteria,7 by measurement of the levels of protein and lactate dehydrogenase in the pleural fluid and in the serum (Table 3). Since these criteria were originally published, several alternative measurements have been proposed for making this distinction8,9 (Table 3). Light's criteria are the most sensitive for identifying exudates but have lower specificity than other criteria — that is, on the basis of Light's criteria, some patients who actually have transudative pleural effusions will be thought to have exudative pleural effusions. If the clinical appearance suggests a transudative effusion but the pleural fluid is an exudate according to Light's criteria, the difference between the albumin levels in the serum and the pleural fluid should be measured. Almost all patients with a serum albumin level that is more than 1.2 g per deciliter higher than the pleural-fluid albumin level have a transudative effusion.9 However, this albumin gradient alone should not be used to distinguish transudates from exudates because it will misidentify approximately 13 percent of exudates as transudates.9

Preface



_


This is not a normal diet book, and I am not a normal diet book author.


I'm not a doctor. Nor am I a nutritionist, psychologist, sports hero, gourmet chef, or any of the other vocations that seem to qualify people to tell you how to lose weight.


I'm an engineer by training, a computer programmer by avocation, and an businessman through lack of alternatives. From grade school in the 1950's until 1988 I was fat--anywhere from 30 to 80 pounds overweight. This is a diet book by somebody who spent most of his life fat.


The absurdity of my situation finally struck home in 1987. ``Look,'' I said to myself, ``you founded one of the five biggest software companies in the world, Autodesk. You wrote large pieces of AutoCAD, the world standard for computer aided design. You've made in excess of fifty million dollars without dropping dead, going crazy, or winding up in jail. You've succeeded at some pretty difficult things, and you can't control your flippin' weight?''


Through all the years of struggling with my weight, the fad diets, the tedious and depressing history most fat people share, I had never, even once, approached controlling my weight the way I'd work on any other problem: a malfunctioning circuit, a buggy program, an ineffective department in my company.


As an engineer, I was trained to solve problems. As a software developer, I designed tools to help others solve their problems. As a businessman I survived and succeeded by managing problems. And yet, all that time, I hadn't looked at my own health as something to be investigated, managed, and eventually solved in the same way. I decided to do just that.


This book is a compilation of what I learned. Six months after I decided being fat was a problem to be solved, not a burden to be endured, I was no longer overweight. Since then, my weight hasn't varied by more than a few pounds. I'm hungry less often at 145 pounds than I was at 215. I look better, feel great, and have more energy for the things I enjoy. I spend only a few minutes a day maintaining this happy situation. And I know I'll be able to control my weight from now on, because I have the tools I need, the will to use them, and the experience to know they work.


The tools are now in your hands.


Live long and prosper.
