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

Occupational Interstitial Lung Diseases
Immunology 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]
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.

European Respiratory Review, 2021 Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a systemic inflammatory disorder, with the most common extra-articular manifestation of RA being lung involvement. While essentially any of the lung compartments can be affected and manifest as interstitial lung disease (ILD),

Genetic Interstitial Lung Disease [PDF]
Clinics 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]
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 ...

Predictors and changes of physical activity in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis
BMC 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 ...

Variability in Global Prevalence of Interstitial Lung Disease
Frontiers in Medicine, 2021 There are limited epidemiologic studies describing the global burden and geographic heterogeneity of interstitial lung disease (ILD) subtypes. We found that among seventeen methodologically heterogenous studies that examined the incidence, prevalence and

Lung function trajectory in progressive fibrosing interstitial lung disease
European Respiratory Journal, 2021 Background Proposed criteria for progressive fibrosing interstitial lung disease (PF-ILD) have been linked to increased mortality risk, but lung function trajectory after satisfying individual criteria remains unknown. Because survival is rarely employed

BMJ 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 ...
