Characterization of the PF-ILD phenotype in patients with advanced pulmonary sarcoidosis

Respiratory Research, 2022
Background Advanced pulmonary sarcoidosis causes significant morbidity and can lead to death. Large trials demonstrated efficacy of antifibrotics in patients with progressive fibrosing interstitial lung diseases (PF-ILD), including a few with sarcoidosis.

Decreased Survival and Lung Function in Progressive Pulmonary Fibrosis

Medicina, 2023
Background and Objectives: Progressive pulmonary fibrosis (PPF) is a recently described term reserved for patients with fibrotic ILD other than idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) with fast clinical deterioration. Here, survival and prognostic biomarkers

Clustering of lung diseases in the family of interstitial lung disease patients

BMC Pulmonary Medicine, 2022
Background The presence of familial interstitial lung disease (ILD) has been found to predict development of progressive pulmonary fibrosis. However, the role of non-ILD lung diseases in ILD patients’ families has not yet been investigated.

No effect of danazol treatment in patients with advanced idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis

ERJ Open Research, 2023
Background Telomere dysfunction can underly the development of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), and recent work suggests that patients with telomere syndromes might benefit from treatment with androgens, such as danazol.

Occupational Interstitial Lung Diseases

Immunology and Allergy Clinics of North America, 2023
Occupational exposures are directly causal or partially contributory to the development of interstitial lung diseases. A detailed occupational history, relevant high-resolution computed tomography findings, and where relevant additional histopathology, are required to make a diagnosis.

Interstitial lung disease [PDF]

European Respiratory Review, 2014
Interstitial lung diseases are a group of diffuse parenchymal lung disorders associated with substantial morbidity and mortality. Knowledge achieved in recent years has resulted in the publication of the new classification of idiopathic interstitial pneumonias, according to which there are three groups: major, rare and unclassified.

Genetic Interstitial Lung Disease [PDF]

Clinics in Chest Medicine, 2012
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 ...

Telomeres in Interstitial Lung Disease [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Medicine, 2021
Interstitial lung diseases (ILD) encompass a group of conditions involving fibrosis and/or inflammation of the pulmonary parenchyma. Telomeres are repetitive DNA sequences at chromosome ends which protect against genome instability. At each cell division, telomeres shorten, but the telomerase complex partially counteracts progressive loss of telomeres ...

Distinct metabolic features in the plasma of patients with silicosis and dust-exposed workers in China: a case–control study

BMC Pulmonary Medicine, 2021
Background Silicosis is a progressive pneumoconiosis characterized by interstitial fibrosis following exposure to silica dust. The role of metabolic dysregulation in the pathogenesis of silicosis has not been investigated in detail.

Cluster features in fibrosing interstitial lung disease and associations with prognosis

BMC Pulmonary Medicine, 2023
Background Clustering is helpful in identifying subtypes in complex fibrosing interstitial lung disease (F-ILD) and associating them with prognosis at an early stage of the disease to improve treatment management.
