ABSTRACT The orally inhaled route of administration for respiratory indications can maximize drug exposure to the site of action (lung) to increase efficacy while minimizing systemic exposure to achieve an improved safety profile. However, due to the difficulty of taking samples from different regions of the human lung, often only systemic ...

Malignancies and immunoglobulin G4‐related disease
Immunoglobulin G4‐related disease (IgG4‐RD) is associated with increased cancer risk. Malignancies affect both IgG4‐RD involved organs, such as the lung, pancreas, bile duct, and prostate, and noninvolved organs, such as the gastrointestinal duct. B‐cell neoplasms constitute a proportion of the malignancies linked to this disease.

The final systemic sclerosis patients with interstitial lung disease (SSc‐ILD) progression prediction model was composed of 6 significant risk factors: male, type 2 diabetes mellitus, pericardial effusion, anti‐Ro52, hypoproteinemia, and elevated C‐reactive protein. Our model demonstrated excellent prognostic utility.
