Smoking and interstitial lung diseases [PDF]
European Respiratory Review, 2015 For many years has been well known that smoking could cause lung damage. Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and lung cancer have been the two most common smoking-related lung diseases.

Interstitial lung disease [PDF]
European 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.

Interstitial lung disease [PDF]
European Respiratory Review, 2013 This article reviews the most important articles published in interstitial lung disease, as reviewed during the Clinical Year in Review session at the 2012 annual European Respiratory Society Congress in Vienna, Austria.Since the recent international guidelines for the management of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), important new evidence is ...

Telomeres in Interstitial Lung Disease [PDF]
Journal 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 ...

Lung transplantation for interstitial lung disease [PDF]
European Respiratory Review, 2021 Lung transplantation (LTx) can be a life-extending treatment option for patients with advanced and/or progressive fibrotic interstitial lung disease (ILD), especially idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), fibrotic hypersensitivity pneumonitis, sarcoidosis and connective tissue disease-associated ILD.

Interstitial lung diseases in children [PDF]
Orphanet Journal of Rare Diseases, 2010 Interstitial lung disease (ILD) in infants and children comprises a large spectrum of rare respiratory disorders that are mostly chronic and associated with high morbidity and mortality. These disorders are characterized by inflammatory and fibrotic changes that affect alveolar walls.

Interstitial Lung Diseases [PDF]
, 2009 The term interstitial lung disease (ILD) comprises a diverse group of diseases that lead to inflammation and fibrosis of the alveoli, distal airways, and septal interstitium of the lungs. The ILDs consist of disorders of known cause (e.g., collagen vascular diseases, drug-related diseases) as well as disorders of unknown etiology.

The Genetics of Interstitial Lung Diseases [PDF]
European Respiratory Review, 2019 Interstitial lung diseases (ILDs) are a set of heterogeneous lung diseases characterised by inflammation and, in some cases, fibrosis. These lung conditions lead to dyspnoea, cough, abnormalities in gas exchange, restrictive physiology (characterised by decreased lung volumes), hypoxaemia and, if progressive, respiratory failure.

The lung microbiome in interstitial lung disease. [PDF]
Breathe (Sheff)Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is a heterogeneous chronic form of lung disease. The pathogenesis of ILD is poorly understood and a common form of ILD, idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is associated with poor prognosis. There is evidence for substantial dysregulated immune responses in ILD.

Lung transplantation for interstitial lung disease. [PDF]
Breathe (Sheff)Interstitial lung diseases (ILDs) are now the most common indication for lung transplant internationally. Given that many lung transplant candidates with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis are older, referral to a pulmonary rehabilitation programme is important to help mitigate the adverse outcomes associated with frailty.
