Diffuse alveolar haemorrhage associated with subsequent development of ANCA positivity and emphysema in three young adults

open access: yesBMC Pulmonary Medicine, 2019
Background Diffuse alveolar haemorrhage (DAH) is characterized by the diffuse accumulation of red blood cells within the alveoli, presence of ground glass opacities and/or consolidation on computed tomography (CT).

Prognostic factors in chronic hypersensitivity pneumonitis

open access: yesEuropean Respiratory Review, 2020
Hypersensitivity pneumonitis (HP) is an immunologically mediated lung disease resulting from exposure to inhaled environmental antigens. Prognosis is variable, with a subset of patients developing progressive fibrosis leading to respiratory failure and ...

Lung transplantation for interstitial lung disease

open access: yesEuropean 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

Low-dose pulse cyclophosphamide in interstitial lung disease associated with systemic sclerosis (SSc-ILD): efficacy of maintenance immunosuppression in responders and non-responders [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
To investigate the long-term disease course of patients with recently deteriorated systemic sclerosis (SSC)-interstitial lung disease (ILD) undergoing continuous immunosuppressive treatment with cyclophosphamide (CYC) as induction ...

Patient perspectives on home-spirometry in interstitial lung disease: a qualitative co-designed study

open access: yesBMJ Open Respiratory Research, 2023
Background Opportunities for home-monitoring are increasing exponentially. Home- spirometry is reproducible and reliable in interstitial lung disease (ILD), yet patients’ experiences are not reported.

Progressive fibrosing interstitial lung disease: a clinical cohort (the PROGRESS study)

open access: yesEuropean Respiratory Journal, 2020
In patients with chronic fibrosing interstitial lung disease (ILD), a progressive fibrosing phenotype (PF-ILD) may develop, but information on the frequency and characteristics of this population outside clinical trials is lacking.

Fibrotic Idiopathic Interstitial Lung Disease: The Molecular and Cellular Key Players

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2021
Interstitial lung diseases (ILDs) that are known as diffuse parenchymal lung diseases (DPLDs) lead to the damage of alveolar epithelium and lung parenchyma, culminating in inflammation and widespread fibrosis.

Increased expression of 5-hydroxytryptamine(2A/B) receptors in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis: a rationale for therapeutic intervention [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Background Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) has a poor prognosis and limited responsiveness to available treatments. It is characterised by epithelial cell injury, fibroblast activation and proliferation and extracellular matrix deposition ...

Overnight desaturation in interstitial lung diseases: links to pulmonary vasculopathy and mortality

open access: yesERJ Open Research
Background Overnight desaturation predicts poor prognosis across interstitial lung diseases (ILDs). The aim of the present study was to investigate whether nocturnal desaturation is associated with pulmonary vasculopathy and mortality.

Prognostic value of serum oncomarkers for patients hospitalized with acute exacerbation of interstitial lung disease

open access: yesTherapeutic Advances in Respiratory Disease
Background: Different types of inflammatory processes and fibrosis have been implicated in the pathogenesis of interstitial lung disease (ILD), a heterogeneous, diffuse, parenchymal lung disease.
