Pediatric Pulmonology Childhood Interstitial Lung Disease: Family Experiences
Aims: To present experiences of UK families of children diagnosed with ILD, to inform clinical practice and service development. Methods: Thirty seven such families completed an anonymous web-based survey between February and March 2014. Results: Median time from first symptoms to diagnosis was 25 weeks. Most reported that they were happy with the overall management of their child. Areas highli...
متن کاملSurfactant Lipidomics in Healthy Children and Childhood Interstitial Lung Disease
BACKGROUND Lipids account for the majority of pulmonary surfactant, which is essential for normal breathing. We asked if interstitial lung diseases (ILD) in children may disrupt alveolar surfactant and give clues for disease categorization. METHODS Comprehensive lipidomics profiles of broncho-alveolar lavage fluid were generated in 115 children by electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrome...
متن کاملSurfactant Metabolism Dysfunction and Childhood Interstitial Lung Disease (chILD)
Surfactant deficiency and the resultant respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) seen in preterm infants is a major cause of respiratory morbidity in this population. Until recently, the contribution of surfactant to respiratory morbidity in infancy was limited to the neonatal period. It is now recognised that inborn errors of surfactant metabolism leading to surfactant dysfunction account for aroun...
متن کاملInterstitial Lung Disease in Childhood: Clinical and Genetic Aspects
Interstitial lung disease (ILD) in childhood is a heterogeneous group of rare pulmonary conditions presenting chronic respiratory disorders. Many clinical features of ILD still remain unclear, making the treatment strategies mainly investigative. Guidelines may provide physicians with an overview on the diagnosis and therapeutic directions. However, the criteria used in different clinical studi...
متن کاملInherited interstitial lung disease.
This article focuses on recent advances in the identification of genes and genetic polymorphisms that have been implicated in the development of human interstitial lung diseases. It focuses on the inherited mendelian diseases in which pulmonary fibrosis is part of the clinical phenotype and the genetics of familial idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis and other rare inherited interstitial lung disease...
