Assessment of pulmonary edema: principles and practice [PDF]

, 2018
Pulmonary edema increasingly is recognized as a perioperative complication affecting outcome. Several risk factors have been identified, including those of cardiogenic origin, such as heart failure or excessive fluid administration, and those related to ...

Coagulation and anticoagulation in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis [PDF]

, 2015
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is an incurable, progressive interstitial lung disease with a prognosis that is worse than that of many cancers. Epidemiological studies have demonstrated a link between IPF and thrombotic vascular events.

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

Trials, 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 ...

Fibroblastic Foci in Usual Interstitial Pneumonia: Idiopathic versus Collagen Vascular Disease [PDF]

, 2003
A histologic feature of usual interstitial pneumonia is the presence of fibroblastic foci. As some patients with usual interstitial pneumonia and an underlying collagen vascular disease have a better prognosis, we hypothesized that they would have fewer ...

Gene expression profiles among murine strains segregate with distinct differences in the progression of radiation-induced lung disease. [PDF]

, 2017
Molecular mechanisms underlying development of acute pneumonitis and/or late fibrosis following thoracic irradiation remain poorly understood. Here, we hypothesize that heterogeneity in disease progression and phenotypic expression of radiation-induced ...

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

Frontiers 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.

Sequencing of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis-related genes reveals independent single gene associations [PDF]

, 2014
BACKGROUND: Previous studies investigating a genetic basis for idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) have focused on resequencing single genes in IPF kindreds or cohorts to determine the genetic contributions to IPF.
