Previous studies have suggested a potential correlation between obesity and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). This study aimed to elucidate pathogenic pathways connecting obesity and IPF and identify diagnostic biomarkers for obesity-related pulmo...
BACKGROUND: Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a chronic progressive pulmonary disease characterized by alveolar structural destruction and fibrosis. In recent years, efferocytosis has been recognized as playing a crucial role in the occurrence a...
OBJECTIVE: Emerging evidence suggests a potential relationship between lipid metabolism and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). This study aimed to identify lipid-related genes implicated in IPF pathogenesis.
BACKGROUND: Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a rare, progressive, and fibrotic disease with poor prognosis that lacks treatment options. As a major component of the lung adaptive immune system, plasma cells play a crucial regulatory role during...
The standard approach to diagnosing idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) includes identifying the usual interstitial pneumonia (UIP) pattern via high resolution computed tomography (HRCT) or lung biopsy and excluding known causes of interstitial lung ...
Objective Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), which radiologically/pathologically manifests mainly as usual interstitial pneumonia (UIP), is easily confused with chronic hypersensitivity pneumonitis (CHP) and collagenous vascular disease in clinical...
OBJECTIVES: Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a progressive interstitial lung disease. Chest high-resolution CT (HRCT) is instrumental in IPF management, and the Quantitative Lung Fibrosis (QLF) score is a computer-assisted metric for quantifyin...
BACKGROUND: Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is an interstitial lung disease with a fatal outcome, known for its rapid progression and unpredictable clinical course. However, the tools available for diagnosing and treating IPF are quite limited. T...
BACKGROUND: The diagnosis of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is complex, which requires lung biopsy, if necessary, and multidisciplinary discussions with specialists. Clinical diagnosis of the two ailments is particularly challenging due to the i...
OBJECTIVES: Novel non-invasive machine learning algorithms may improve accuracy and reduce the need for biopsy when diagnosing idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). We conducted a cost-effectiveness analysis of diagnostic strategies for IPF.
