Connective tissue disease related interstitial lung diseases and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis: provisional core sets of domains and instruments for use in clinical trials [PDF]
Rationale Clinical trial design in interstitial lung diseases (ILDs) has been hampered by lack of consensus on appropriate outcome measures for reliably assessing treatment response.

Introduction Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) prognosis is heterogeneous despite antifibrotic treatment. Cluster analysis has proven to be a useful tool in identifying interstitial lung disease phenotypes, which has yet to be performed in IPF. The aim

The role of nailfold capillaroscopy in interstitial lung diseases - Can it differentiate idiopathic cases from collagen tissue disease associated interstitial lung diseases? [PDF]
Introduction: Nailfold capillaroscopy (NFC) is a non-invasive diagnostic test that is mostly used for early diagnosis of collagen tissue diseases (CTDs). We aimed to evaluate whether NFC findings could be a clue for discriminating idiopathic interstitial

Genetic Interstitial Lung Disease [PDF]
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 ...
