dEtection of rheumAtoid aRthritis - Interstitial Lung dIseasE by Thoracic ultRasound
Rheumatoid arthritis is an autoimmune disease that can affect various organs, including the lungs, and lead to rheumatoid arthritis-interstitial lung disease (RA-ILD). RA-ILD is responsible for increased mortality in rheumatoid arthristis (RA) patients. The prevalence of RA-ILD varies according to the screening tool used. The current gold standard is chest …
Exploring How Viral Infections Affect People With Chronic Lung Disease
Many people with chronic lung disease have disease flare-ups. It was previously believed that these were mainly caused by bacteria but recent evidence suggests that viruses could be an important trigger. This study will recruit volunteers with chronic lung disease and take samples both when well (at baseline) and during …
Cognitive Screening in Lung Cancer Patients
This study aims to investigate the occurrence of cancer and adjuvant therapy-related cognitive impairment in patients with both NSCLC and SCLC. The primary endpoint measure will be the presence of cognitive impairment during the first year after enrollment through the administration of a comprehensive neuropsychological assessment.
Evaluation of HRCT Patterns in Systemic Sclerosis-associated Interstitial Lung Disease
Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is a heterogeneous systemic autoimmune disease with distinct prognosis according to patients. Interstitial lung disease (ILD) concerns almost 50 % of SSc patients and represents the main cause of mortality. SSc-ILD is variable: from limited forms (with asymptomatic patients) to extensive lesions. Disease course in SSc-ILD is …
Thrombo Embolic Events in Hospitalized Patients With Covid-19 Serious Acute Pneumopathy
The understanding of haemostasis and inflammation cross-talk has gained considerable knowledge during the past decade in the field of arterial and venous thrombosis. Complex and delicately balanced interaction between coagulation and inflammation involve all cellular and humoral components. Elements of the coagulation system such as activated thrombin, fibrinogen or factor …
Self-efficacy and Well-being of Patients With Fibrotic Interstitial Lung Disease
Patients with fibrotic insterstitial lung disease (ILD) participating in inpatient rehabilitation or in outpatient pulmonary care will be invited to participate in this observational study. Patients will fill out questionnaire regarding quality of life and symptoms at baseline and follow-up (at the end of rehabilitation or after the second outpatient …
Drug Exposure and Minimum Inhibitory Concentration in the Treatment of MAC Lung Disease
The incidence and prevalence of nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) infections have gradually increased over the years worldwide (1-3). In China, Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC) was the most prevalent NTM specie (4), while challenged by long treatment duration, frequent drug-induced adverse events, lack of treatment alternatives, poor treatment outcome and high recurrence …
Effects of Pulmonary Diseases and Their Treatment on Cardiac Function
While the bidirectional relationship between the lung and the right heart are well studied, the cardiopulmonary interactions between the lung and the left heart are largely unresearched and not well understood. However, in recent years, there is a growing evidence that partially explains the bidirectional interaction between COPD and left …
Radiologic Features of Rheumatoid Arthritis Interstitial Lung Disease at Chest High Resolution Computed Tomography
Lung involvement is one of the most frequent extra articular involvements of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). RA related lung involvement can affect parenchyma, airway, vascular tree and serosa. Among all possible manifestations of lung disease, interstitial lung disease is the most severe being able to compromise quality of life and survival …
Prospective Cohort of Patients With Fibrosing Interstitial Lung Disease Admitted for Acute Respiratory Failure
This prospective, multicenter study focuses on patients with fibrosing interstitial lung diseases (ILD) admitted to intensive care units (ICUs) for acute respiratory failure (ARF). ILD encompasses a group of heterogeneous disorders characterized by progressive fibrotic and inflammatory damage to the lung interstitium, often resulting in chronic respiratory failure. Acute respiratory …
