Clinical Outcomes and Acute Exacerbation Incidence in Combined Pulmonary Fibrosis and Emphysema
This multicentre prospective study of 1016 patients demonstrated that CPFE, defined as ≥ 5% emphysema on visual CT assessment, identified a high‐risk phenotype with significantly worse 5‐year survival compared to non‐CPFE IIP patients (51.4% vs. 63.1%) and COPD patients (51.4% vs. 84.0%) and higher acute exacerbation incidence, validating international

This review highlights changes relevant to pathologists in the updated multidisciplinary classification of interstitial pneumonias. Changes include expansion beyond idiopathic disease, subclassification as interstitial (fibrotic vs non‐fibrotic) and alveolar filling disorders, expansion to include additional patterns (e.g.

Abstract Background and aims Real‐world evaluation of clinical characteristics and treatment profile of patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is needed to establish areas for improvement according to evidence‐based recommendations. This study evaluated the clinical characteristics and treatment profile of patients with IPF from the ...

Combined pulmonary fibrosis and emphysema
Introduction: Pulmonary fibrosis is a disease that is characterized by an accumulation of excess fibrous connective tissue in the interstitium or alveoli. This process is called scarring. The main pathophysiological effect is reduction of oxygen supply

Serum levels of surfactant proteins in patients with combined pulmonary fibrosis and emphysema (CPFE) [PDF]
Introduction: Emphysema and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis(IPF) are defined by different clinical, functional, radiological, and pathological criteria that coexist in CPFE. Serum surfactant protein(SP) levels increase in patients with COPD and IPF and correlate to disease severity.

ABSTRACT Level 3 cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) can unmask the dynamic burden of pulmonary vascular disease (PVD), while submaximal exercise testing offers a simpler, noninvasive alternative. Emerging markers such as a gas‐exchange derived estimate of pulmonary vascular capacitance (GXCAP) and ventilatory efficiency (VE/VCO2) may reflect PVD ...
