1. Barreras de acceso en la atención de las enfermedades pulmonares intersticiales en Colombia
Abstract There is a growing amount of information regarding the management of interstitial lung diseases in the world. However, barriers in access to health systems affect adherence to treatment standards for these patients. This article aims to explore the perspectives of pulmonologists about the barriers in the diagnosis and treatment of patients with inte

2. Familial pulmonary fibrosis: a heterogeneous spectrum of presentations
RESUMO Objetivo: Descrever as características clínicas, funcionais e radiológicas de um grupo de casos índice diagnosticados com fibrose pulmonar familiar (FPF) no Brasil. Métodos: Trinta e cinco pacientes com FPF (18 mulheres; 51,4%), com mediana de idade de 66,0 anos (variação: 35,5-89,3 anos), responderam a um questionário padronizado e foram su

3. Imaging in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis: diagnosis and mimics
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis is a chronic disease of unknown etiology that usually has a progressive course and is commonly associated with a poor prognosis. The main symptoms of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, including progressive dyspnea and dry cough, are often nonspecific. Chest high-resolution computed tomography is the primary modality used in the ini

4. Dermatomyositis: analysis of 109 patients surveyed at the Hospital das Clínicas (HCFMUSP), São Paulo, Brazil
BACKGROUND: Dermatomyositis affects striated muscles, skin and other organs. OBJECTIVE: To characterize the disease from January 1992 to December 2002, assessing its classification, cutaneous and systemic manifestations, and also laboratory results, therapeutic and prognostic findings compared to those in the literature. METHODS: Data were obtained from

5. Hemorragia alveolar fatal: estudo histológico detalhado de necropsias / Fatal alveolar hemorrhage: detailed histological analysis of necropsies
Alveolar haemorrhage is a syndrome presented by many diseases each one with its particular physiopathologic mechanism resulting in pulmonary bleeding. The detailed histological analysis of these patients can help understanding this syndrome. In this study we reviewed and described histological findings of lung slides and medical records from patients whose c

6. Self-organizing neural networks in the characterization of interstitial lung diseases in chest radiographs. / Redes neurais auto-organizáveis na caracterização de lesões intersticiais de pulmão em radiografia de tórax
The technological development provides an improvement in the quality of life due to easiness, speed and flexibility in the access to the information. In the biomedical area, the technology is admitted as an important allied, allowing the fast development of methods and techniques that assist the professional in the health care. Recent advances in the compute

7. Centrilobular fibrosis (CLF): a distinct histological pattern in systemic sclerosis with interstitial lung disease (ILD) / Fibrose centrilobular (FCL): um padrão histológico pulmonar distinto em pacientes com esclerose sistêmica e doença intersticial pulmonar
Objectives: CLF is a new histological pattern of idiopathic ILD associated to esophageal reflux. We have investigated its presence in SSc with lung involvement. Methods: 28 SSc patients were submitted to open lung biopsy. The specimens were classified according to the new consensus classification of idiopathic interstitial pneumonia and to the diagnostic cri

8. Tomographic evaluation of the small airways in the interstitial lung diseases / Avaliação tomográfica do acometimento das pequenas vias aéreas nas doenças intersticiais do pulmão
The pathogenesis of idiophatic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), the most common form of idiopathic interstitial pneumonias, is not completely understood. It is related to a type I pneumocyte injury with loss of basement membrane integrity and failure of normal re-epithelialization and re-endothelialization leading to fibroblast proliferation and extra cellular matr

9. Artificial neural networks in the support to the diferential diagnosis of interstitial lung diseases. / Redes neurais artificiais no apoio ao diagnóstico diferencial de lesões intersticiais pulmonares.
It is observed that a big growing in the use of computers as a tool to help in several areas, specially in medicine, happened in the past years. A big number of applications of these computers can be found in Medicine, such as the Diagnosis Support System, which is one of the most remarkable. These systems have as its main objective to help in the phases its

10. Accuracy of mortality data for interstitial lung diseases in New Mexico, USA.
BACKGROUND: The sensitivity and accuracy of death certificates and mortality data as sources of population based data on the occurrence of interstitial lung diseases has received limited attention. To determine the usefulness of these data sources, death certificates and mortality data from patients in New Mexico were examined. METHODS: Patients with an inte

11. Lipoprotein macroaggregates in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid from patients with diffuse interstitial lung disease: comparison with idiopathic alveolar lipoproteinosis.
Lipoprotein macroaggregates were present in cytocentrifuge preparations of bronchoalveolar lavage fluid from four patients with diffuse lung diseases other than idiopathic alveolar lipoproteinosis. In three patients the primary diagnosis was cryptogenic fibrosing alveolitis and in one sarcoidosis. We confirmed the presence of large multilamellar aggregates o
