Characterizing Pulmonary Fibrosis Patterns in Post-COVID-19 Patients through Machine Learning Algorithms [PDF]
The COVID-19 pandemic has left a lasting impact on global healthcare systems, with increasing evidence of pulmonary fibrosis emerging as a post-infection complication. This study presents a comprehensive analysis of pulmonary fibrosis patterns in post-COVID-19 patients from South and Central Iraq, employing advanced machine learning algorithms.

Growth factors in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis: relative roles [PDF]
Treatment of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis patients has evolved very slowly; the fundamental approach of corticosteroids alone or in combination with other immunosuppressive agents has had little impact on long-term survival.

Mitochondrial Quality Control in Age-Related Pulmonary Fibrosis. [PDF]
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is age-related interstitial lung disease of unknown etiology. About 100,000 people in the U.S have IPF, with a 3-year median life expectancy post-diagnosis.

Survival Analysis for Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis using CT Images and Incomplete Clinical Data [PDF]
Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF) is an inexorably progressive fibrotic lung disease with a variable and unpredictable rate of progression. CT scans of the lungs inform clinical assessment of IPF patients and contain pertinent information related to disease progression.

Hunting imaging biomarkers in pulmonary fibrosis: Benchmarks of the AIIB23 challenge [PDF]
Airway-related quantitative imaging biomarkers are crucial for examination, diagnosis, and prognosis in pulmonary diseases. However, the manual delineation of airway trees remains prohibitively time-consuming. While significant efforts have been made towards enhancing airway modelling, current public-available datasets concentrate on lung diseases with
