Pathogenesis of systemic sclerosis associated interstitial lung disease
Systemic sclerosis is an autoimmune disease leading to vasculopathy and fibrosis of skin and internal organs. Despite likely shared pathogenic mechanisms, the patterns of skin and lung fibrosis differ.

Seeing inside the Body Using Wearable Sensing and Imaging Technologies
This review explores wearable technologies for noninvasive internal health monitoring. It categorizes approaches into indirect sensing (e.g., bioelectrical and biochemical signals) and direct imaging (e.g., wearable ultrasound and EIT), highlighting multimodal integration and system‐level innovation toward personalized, continuous healthcare.

A persistent variant telomere sequence in a human pedigree
The telomere sequence, TTAGGG, is conserved across all vertebrates and plays an essential role in suppressing the DNA damage response by binding a set of proteins termed shelterin. Changes in the telomere sequence impair shelterin binding, initiate a DNA

Drug-Induced Interstitial Lung Disease: A Systematic Review
Background: Drug-induced interstitial lung disease (DIILD) occurs as a result of numerous agents, but the risk often only becomes apparent after the marketing authorisation of such agents.

The 6 minute walk in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis: longitudinal changes and minimum important difference [PDF]
The response characteristics of the 6 minute walk test (6MWT) in studies of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) are only poorly understood, and the change in walk distance that constitutes the minimum important difference (MID) over time is ...

MUC5B Promoter Variant and Rheumatoid Arthritis with Interstitial Lung Disease
BACKGROUND Given the phenotypic similarities between rheumatoid arthritis (RA)–associated interstitial lung disease (ILD) (hereafter, RA‐ILD) and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, we hypothesized that the strongest risk factor for the development of ...
