متن کاملInterstitial lung disease in inflammatory myopathies: clinical phenotypes and prognosis.
Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is a very important complication of the idiopathic inflammatory myositides (IIM), with a prevalence of approximately 40 %. Characteristic HRCT changes, most commonly NSIP, together with a restrictive ventilatory defect and an associated decline in DLco support the presence of ILD. The strongest risk factors are the presence of the anti-amino-acyl-tRNA synthetases...
