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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

A descriptive epidemiological study of interstitial lung disease in the United Kingdom general population [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is a heterogeneous group of parenchymal lung disorders having varied histopathologies. Although histologically different, the ILDs have rather similar clinical presentations consisting of increasing dyspnea, a restrictive ...
