[this article has been retracted for duplicate publication] background: the pathological classification of cryptogenic fibrosing alveolitis has been a matter of debate and controversy for histopathologists. objective: to identify and specify the glycotypes of capillary endothelial cells in usual interstitial pneumonia (uip) compared to those found in normal tissue. methods: sections of formalin...
متن کاملTransbronchial biopsy in usual interstitial pneumonia.
BACKGROUND Usual interstitial pneumonia (UIP) is a slowly progressive, usually fatal form of idiopathic interstitial pneumonia for which there is no effective treatment. Transbronchial biopsy (TBB) has been utilized only to exclude other diseases such as sarcoidosis, lymphangitic carcinoma, and infection, for example, but TBB is generally considered to have little role in confirming UIP.

متن کاملUsual interstitial pneumonia in rheumatoid arthritis-associated interstitial lung disease.
Interstitial lung disease is a common manifestation of rheumatoid arthritis; however, little is known about factors that influence its prognosis. The aim of the present study was to determine whether or not the usual interstitial pneumonia pattern found on high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) is of prognostic significance in rheumatoid arthritis-associated interstitial lung disease (RA-IL...
متن کاملSurvival of patients with biopsy-proven usual interstitial pneumonia and nonspecific interstitial pneumonia.
This is the first Australian study to examine survival and clinical characteristics in biopsy-proven idiopathic interstitial pneumonia. A cohort of 70 patients from a single institution between January 1990 and December 1999 was reviewed. All patients were Caucasian, 23 (33%) female. Mean age+/-SD at diagnosis was 60+/-12 yrs for males and 54+/-14 yrs for females. A total 24% of patients had ne...
متن کاملExpression of HSP47 in Usual Interstitial Pneumonia and Nonspecific Interstitial Pneumonia
BACKGROUND Heat shock protein (HSP) 47, a collagen-specific molecular chaperone, is involved in the processing and/or secretion of procollagens, and its expression is increased in various fibrotic diseases. The aim of this study was to determine whether quantitative immunohistochemical evaluation of the expression levels of HSP47, type I procollagen and alpha-smooth muscle actin (SMA) allows th...
