Interstitial lung diseases in children

open access: yesLa Presse Médicale, 2020
Interstitial lung disease (ILD) in children (chILD) is a heterogeneous group of rare respiratory disorders that are mostly chronic and associated with high morbidity and mortality. The pathogenesis of the various chILD is complex and the diseases share common features of inflammatory and fibrotic changes of the lung parenchyma that impair gas exchanges.

Ambulatory oxygen in fibrotic lung disease (AmbOx): study protocol for a randomised controlled trial

open access: yesTrials, 2017
Background Fibrotic interstitial lung diseases (ILDs) are chronic and often progressive conditions resulting in substantial morbidity and mortality. Shortness of breath, a symptom often linked to oxygen desaturation on exertion, is tightly linked to ...

Present and future perspectives in early diagnosis and monitoring for progressive fibrosing interstitial lung diseases

open access: yesFrontiers in Medicine, 2023
Progressive fibrosing interstitial lung diseases (PF-ILDs) represent a group of conditions of both known and unknown origin which continue to worsen despite standard treatments, leading to respiratory failure and early mortality.

Tracking dyspnea up to supplemental oxygen prescription among patients with pulmonary fibrosis

open access: yesBMC Pulmonary Medicine, 2017
Background Dyspnea is the hallmark symptom of pulmonary fibrosis. Supplemental oxygen (O2) is prescribed to many patients with pulmonary fibrosis in hopes of alleviating dyspnea and improving physical functioning.

Interstitial lung disease in newborns [PDF]

open access: yesSeminars in Fetal and Neonatal Medicine, 2017
The term 'interstitial lung disease' (ILD) refers to a group of disorders involving both the airspaces and tissue compartments of the lung, and these disorders are more accurately termed diffuse lung diseases. Although rare, they are associated with significant morbidity and mortality, with the prognosis depending upon the specific diagnosis. The major

Senescence of bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells from patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis

open access: yesStem Cell Research & Therapy, 2018
Background Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a chronic lung disease for which age is the most important risk factor. Different mechanisms associated with aging, including stem cell dysfunction, have been described to participate in the ...

The lung microbiome in interstitial lung disease

open access: yesBreathe
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

open access: yesBreathe
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.
