Clinical characteristics in Combined Pulmonary Fibrosis and Emphysema Syndrome vs Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis patients
Abstract: Aim: To identify differences between combined pulmonary fibrosis and emphysema syndrome (CPFE) and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) by a retrospective comparison of clinical data including clinical characteristics and baseline changes in pulmonary function. Methods: We studied demographic, clinical and physiologic features for two groups of patients, (total N=26) those with CPFE (7...
متن کاملThe presence of emphysema further impairs physiologic function in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis.
BACKGROUND Emphysema, especially in the upper lobes, is frequently observed in association with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). However, the combination of emphysema plus IPF has received little attention. OBJECTIVE To investigate the additional functional impairment from emphysema in IPF patients. METHODS Twenty-one patients (mean age 66 y, 20 men) (Group I) who had both IPF (mean 35%...
متن کاملDepression in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis.
Depression carries enormous global morbidity and is 1.5-7 times likelier to occur in individuals with chronic illness than in the general population. Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) has a rising incidence with a severe impact on quality of life. An indication of the prevalence of depression in this group is therefore of paramount interest. A prospective study was performed. A total of 118 p...
متن کاملIncidence and clinical characteristics of pulmonary hypertension in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis.
BACKGROUND Pulmonary hypertension (PH) frequently complicates the course of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) patients and is associated with significantly worse outcomes. The aim of the present study was to investigate the incidence of PH in IPF patients and evaluate the correlation between clinical parameters and systolic pulmonary artery pressure (sPAP). METHODS Hospitalized patients wit...
متن کاملMycobacterial Pulmonary Infections in Patients with Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis
Patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) have an increased risk for developing tuberculosis (TB). However, no studies have been reported regarding the development of nontuberculous mycobacterium (NTM) lung disease (NTMLD). We reviewed 795 patients with IPF from five university hospitals who were diagnosed by histological or radio-clinical criteria. In the 795 patients with IPF, pulmona...
