Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis and Progressive Pulmonary Fibrosis
Immunology and Allergy Clinics of North America, 2023Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), a common interstitial lung disease (ILD), is a chronic, progressive fibrosing interstitial pneumonia, with an unknown cause. IPF has been linked to several genetic and environmental risk factors. Disease progression is common and associated with worse outcomes.

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis is a fibrosing interstitial pneumonia associated with the radiological and/or histological pattern of usual interstitial pneumonia. Its aetiology is unknown, but probably comprises the action of endogenous and exogenous micro-environmental factors in subjects with genetic predisposition.

Histopathology, 1990
Diffuse interstitial pulmonary fibrosis is the end result of alveolar damage which may occur as a sudden acute incident or as a slowly developing process. Potentiating factors include release of enzymes and generation of oxygen radicals by granulocytes.

Pulmonary fibrosis in children
The Indian Journal of Pediatrics, 1981The functional integrity of the lung is largely dependant on the connective tissue and capillary structure of the gas exchanging parts. Pulmonary fibrosis as a result of several interstinal diseases have major physiological implications. We report three cases of pulmonary fibrosis in children.

Endothelin in Pulmonary Fibrosis
American Journal of Respiratory Cell and Molecular Biology, 2011Abstract The endothelin receptor–ligand system includes a family of polypeptides and G-protein–coupled receptors, which, in addition to their classic activity in the regulation of vascular tone (both directly and through the control of nitric oxide), were implicated in a wide variety of other key biological processes.

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), or cryptogenic fibrosing alveolitis as it is known in the United Kingdom and Europe, is perhaps one of the most complex and frustrating pulmonary disorders. The cause of this illness is unknown. Treatment often founders in a mire of discontent, dissatisfaction, and failure. In fact, the philosophic homily "If you do

Seminars in Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 2012
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a specific form of progressive, chronic fibrosing interstitial lung disease occurring primarily in older adults and limited to the lungs. The prognosis is dire, with half of all patients progressing to death from respiratory failure within 3 to 5 years from initial diagnosis. The pathogenesis of IPF is complex and

Pulmonary Emphysema and Fibrosis
Diseases of the Chest, 19531)Thirty-seven patients with pulmonary emphysema and/or fibrosis have been reviewed. The outstanding symptoms are dyspnea, cyanosis and cough. The main findings on examination are barrel-shaped chest with limited respiratory excursion, hyper-resonance on percussion, hypertrophy of the auxiliary respiratory muscles and decreased pulmonary function ...

Overview of Pulmonary Fibrosis*
Chest, 2002Pulmonary fibrosis is a component of over 200 interstitial lung diseases. Some have known etiologies, however, for many diseases, the etiology remains unknown or obscure. This brief review examines the prevalence and classification of these diseases, the approach to be taken for the investigation of a patient suspected of having pulmonary fibrosis, the

Postgraduate Medicine, 1959
Diffuse pulmonary fibrosis may have many different causes. When roentgenographs examination reveals evidence of this disease, a detailed history should be obtained and a careful physical examination performed. Extensive laboratory procedures often are necessary. Prognosis and treatment depend on the underlying cause and on complications.
