Patients with diabetes are over-represented among the total cases reported with “idiopathic” pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). This raises the question, whether this is an association only or whether diabetes itself can cause pulmonary fibrosis.

The treatment of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis [PDF]
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a progressive and invariably fatal disease with a median survival of less than three years from diagnosis. The last decade has seen an exponential increase in clinical trial activity in IPF and this in turn has led to important developments in the treatment of this terrible disease.

BDNF/TrkB axis activation promotes epithelial-mesenchymal transition in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis [PDF]
Background: Neurotrophins (NT) belongs to a family of growth factors which promotes neurons survival and differentiation. Increasing evidence show that NT and their receptor are expressed in lung tissues suggesting a possible role in lung health and ...

Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis and Telomeres
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis is an interstitial lung disease of unknown etiology with a highly compromised prognosis and a significant mortality rate within a few years of diagnosis. Despite being idiopathic, it has been shown that telomeric shortening could play an important role in its etiopathogenesis.

Abstract This study aimed to compare the treatment plans of x‐ray SBRT and scanning carbon ion radiation therapy (CIRT) for localized lung tumors, and to evaluate the dose dependence of tumor size tumor‐to‐heart distance. For phantom verification, we used a chest phantom with a spherical simulated tumor.

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis: a clinical case of long-term follow-up
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis is a specific form of chronic progressive fibrotic interstitial pneumonia of unknown etiology. Over the past decade, significant progress has been made in developing and utilizing a diagnostic algorithm for patients with ...

Margin-Aware Intra-Class Novelty Identification for Medical Images [PDF]
Traditional anomaly detection methods focus on detecting inter-class variations while medical image novelty identification is inherently an intra-class detection problem. For example, a machine learning model trained with normal chest X-ray and common lung abnormalities, is expected to discover and flag idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis which a rare lung ...
