Histological features and survival in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis was recently redefined as usual interstitial pneumonia of unknown etiology. Consequently, the prognostic value of histological findings needs to be reassessed.

Fibrosing pneumonia – how to diagnose, and how to recognize the etiology?
Background Fibrosing pneumonias are a group of interstitial lung diseases with a different etiologic background and divergent prognosis. They are differentiated into usual interstitial pneumonia (UIP), non-specific interstitial pneumonia (NSIP), and ...

Evaluation of the histological parameters in usual interstitial pneumonia (idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis) [PDF]
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (cryptogenic fibrosing alveolitis) is a progressive interstitial pulmonary disease of unknown etiology. Since Hamman's and Rich's (1944) reports, many studies have tried to find a histological marker for the correlation ...

Objectives: Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is an extra-articular manifestation in rheumatoid arthritis (RA), detected in 10.7% of patients, and causing a poor prognosis. Hence, biomarkers for ILD are urgently required in RA.

Morphological and molecular motifs of fibrosing pulmonary injury patterns
Interstitial lung diseases encompass a large number of entities, which are characterised by a small number of partially overlapping fibrosing injury patterns, either alone or in combination.
