Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Idiopathic pleuroparenchymal fibroelastosis (IPPFE) is a rare idiopathic interstitial pneumonia characterized by an upper lobe-dominant interstitial increase in predominantly elastic fibers. The accumulation of cases has resulted in a refinement of the disease concept, but there are no blood biomarkers to aid in the diagnosis or prediction of a progressive phenotype among PPFE patients. Several...
