Interstitial lung abnormalities a risk factor for rheumatoid arthritis interstitial lung disease progression: what's new

Paolo Maria Leone et al. Breathe (Sheff). 2020 Dec.

Abstract

ILA/ILD extension and subpleural ILA localisation are risk factors for disease progression in RA subjects. A semiquantitative method to assess ILA/ILD extent and to measure the fibrotic burden is feasible to accurately determine ILA progression. https://bit.ly/3mmMJk2.
