Hypersensitivity pneumonitis [PDF]
The first few cases of hypersensitivity pneumonitis (HP) were described in the early 20th century in farmers exposed to moldy hay or straw. As then, HP has been ascribed to multiple inhaled antigens found in a large variety of environmental settings.

Lung Microenvironments and Disease Progression in Fibrotic Hypersensitivity Pneumonitis.
RATIONALE Fibrotic hypersensitivity pneumonitis (fHP) is an interstitial lung disease caused by sensitization to an inhaled allergen. OBJECTIVES We aimed to identify the molecular determinants associated with progression of fibrosis. METHODS Nine fHP

Antigen avoidance and outcome of nonfibrotic and fibrotic hypersensitivity pneumonitis
Background Hypersensitivity pneumonitis (HP) is classified into nonfibrotic and fibrotic phenotypes. Patients with nonfibrotic HP often experience recurrence and develop fibrosis, whereas those with fibrotic HP have a poor prognosis.

Hypersensitivity pneumonitis onset and severity is regulated by CD103 dendritic cell expression. [PDF]
Pulmonary dendritic cells drive lung responses to foreign antigens, including Saccharopolyspora rectivirgula, a causative agent of hypersensitivity pneumonitis.

Cladosporium herbarum Hot-Tub Lung Hypersensitivity Pneumonitis in a Greenhouse Worker
Hypersensitivity pneumonitis is understood to be a delayed allergic reaction to the repeated exposure of a usually innocent inhaled agent, causing inflammatory damage to the pulmonary parenchyma, alveoli and terminal bronchioles.

Mesalazine-induced Hypersensitivity Pneumonitis
A 57-year-old woman with Crohn's disease (ulcerative proctitis) treated with mesalazine (5-ASA) developed worsening respiratory distress and cough. The lack of response to antibiotics and the results of bronchoalveolar lavage led to the diagnosis of ...

Hypersensitivity Pneumonitis [PDF]
Chronic exposure to a broad array of antigens after workers inhale aerosolized organic dust particles from mold, animal dander, bird droppings, and chemicals, especially pesticides or herbicides, increases risk for hypersensitivity pneumonitis. Several demographic characteristics of immigrant workers in farming, poultry processing, construction, and ...

A proportion of patients with fibrotic hypersensitivity pneumonitis (fHP) follow a progressive disease course despite immunosuppressive treatment. Little is known about predictors of mortality in fHP. We aimed to investigate the impact of short‐term lung
