A large number of fibroblast foci (FF) predict mortality in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). Other prognostic histological markers have not been identified. Artificial intelligence (AI) offers a possibility to quantitate possible prognostic histo...
Interstitial lung diseases are a diverse group of disorders that involve inflammation and fibrosis of interstitium, with clinical, radiological, and pathological overlapping features. These are an important cause of morbidity and mortality among lung...
BACKGROUND: In the appropriate clinical setting, the diagnosis of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) requires a pattern of usual interstitial pneumonia to be present on high-resolution chest CT (HRCT) or surgical lung biopsy. A molecular usual inter...
BACKGROUND: Based on international diagnostic guidelines, high-resolution CT plays a central part in the diagnosis of fibrotic lung disease. In the correct clinical context, when high-resolution CT appearances are those of usual interstitial pneumoni...
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to investigate serum concentrations of visfatin, irisin, and omentin in patients with end-stage lung diseases (ESLD) before and after lung transplantation (LTx) and to find relationship between adipokines levels a...
MOTIVATION: Supervised machine learning is widely applied to transcriptomic data to predict disease diagnosis, prognosis or survival. Robust and interpretable classifiers with high accuracy are usually favored for their clinical and translational pot...
BACKGROUND: Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a progressive lung disease with few treatment options. The efficacy of N-acetylcysteine in patients with IPF remains controversial. The aim of this research was to investigate the efficacy of inhaled...
Interstitial lung disease (ILD) diagnosis is complex, continuously evolving, and increasingly reliant on thin-section chest CT. Multidisciplinary discussion aided by a thorough radiologic review can achieve a high-confidence diagnosis of ILD in the m...
This study employed bioinformatics to investigate potential molecular markers associated with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) and examined their correlation with immune-infiltrating cells. Microarray data for IPF were retrieved from the Gene Expr...
The licensing of antifibrotic therapy for fibrotic lung diseases, including idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), has created an urgent need for reliable biomarkers to predict disease progression and treatment response. Some patients experience stable...
