Comparative survival analysis between idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis and chronic hypersensitivity pneumonitis

open access: yesPulmonology, 2020
Introduction Chronic hypersensitivity pneumonitis (CHP) is an interstitial lung disease with limited treatment response and bad prognosis. Sometimes it is indistinguishable from idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) becoming one of the main differential ...

Long-term nitrofurantoin: an analysis of complication awareness, monitoring, and pulmonary injury cases

open access: yesBJGP Open, 2021
Background: Long-term nitrofurantoin (NF) treatment can result in pulmonary and hepatic injury. Current guidelines do not outline the type or frequency of monitoring required for detection of these injuries.

Occupational Interstitial Lung Diseases

open access: yesImmunology and Allergy Clinics of North America, 2023
Occupational exposures are directly causal or partially contributory to the development of interstitial lung diseases. A detailed occupational history, relevant high-resolution computed tomography findings, and where relevant additional histopathology, are required to make a diagnosis.

Interstitial lung disease [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Respiratory Review, 2014
Interstitial lung diseases are a group of diffuse parenchymal lung disorders associated with substantial morbidity and mortality. Knowledge achieved in recent years has resulted in the publication of the new classification of idiopathic interstitial pneumonias, according to which there are three groups: major, rare and unclassified.

A multidisciplinary approach to the diagnosis of antisynthetase syndrome

open access: yesFrontiers in Medicine, 2022
Antisynthetase syndrome is a subtype of idiopathic inflammatory myopathy, strongly associated with the presence of interstitial lung disease. Diagnosis is made by identifying myositis-specific antibodies directed against aminoacyl tRNA synthetase, and ...

Differentiating interstitial lung diseases from other respiratory diseases using electronic nose technology

open access: yesRespiratory Research, 2023
Introduction Interstitial lung disease (ILD) may be difficult to distinguish from other respiratory diseases due to overlapping clinical presentation. Recognition of ILD is often late, causing delay which has been associated with worse clinical outcome ...

Genetic Interstitial Lung Disease [PDF]

open access: yesClinics in Chest Medicine, 2012
The interstitial lung diseases (ILDs), or diffuse parenchymal lung diseases, are a heterogeneous collection of more than 100 different pulmonary disorders that affect the tissue and spaces surrounding the alveoli. Patients affected by ILD usually present with shortness of breath or cough; for many, there is evidence of pulmonary restriction, decreased ...

Telomeres in Interstitial Lung Disease [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Medicine, 2021
Interstitial lung diseases (ILD) encompass a group of conditions involving fibrosis and/or inflammation of the pulmonary parenchyma. Telomeres are repetitive DNA sequences at chromosome ends which protect against genome instability. At each cell division, telomeres shorten, but the telomerase complex partially counteracts progressive loss of telomeres ...

Predictors and changes of physical activity in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis

open access: yesBMC Pulmonary Medicine, 2022
Background Different clinical predictors of physical activity (PA) have been described in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), but studies are lacking evaluating the potential role of muscle strength and anxiety and depression symptoms in PA limitation ...

Clinicoserological features of antisynthetase syndrome (ASyS)-associated interstitial lung disease presenting to respiratory services: comparison with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis and ASyS diagnosed in rheumatology services

open access: yesBMJ Open Respiratory Research, 2021
Introduction Antisynthetase syndrome (ASyS) is a rare autoimmune connective tissue disease (CTD), associated with autoantibodies targeting tRNA synthetase enzymes, that can present to respiratory (interstitial lung disease (ILD)) or rheumatology ...
