Evaluation of cross-reactivity of urinary digoxin-like substance in different radioimmunoassays.

abstract：:The TDx digoxin II immunoassay was used in controls and in patients not taking digoxin or any other cardiac glycoside. We report the frequency of interference thought to be caused by digoxin-like factors (DLFs). We found a high incidence of false-positive results in 15 patients with severe hepatic disease (60% false-p...
