Abstract excerpt
The recent European Respiratory Society statement on familial pulmonary fibrosis supports the need for genetic testing in the care of patients and their relatives. However, no solution (i.e., a concrete test) was provided to implement genetic testing in daily practice. Herein, we tabulated and standardized the nomenclature of 128 genetic variants in 20 genes implicated in adult-onset pulmonary fibrosis. The...
