Overview

Natural history and Complications

  • Definition of acute exacerbation of IPF require evidence of deterioration and exclusion of common causes, such as infection, pulmonary embolism, heart failure, and pneumothorax. Usually it is associated with a histopathologic pattern of diffuse alveolar damage may be a common terminal event. [1]
  • Recent studies have suggested mortality rates from 20 to 86% after acute exacerbation. [2] [3]
  • Some retrospective analysis showed that 50% of the mortality cause for IPF patients followed acute deterioration in pulmonary function associated with acute exacerbation. [4]

Predictors for survival

  • Controversial debate among the patient age and the baseline pulmonary function, as some studies found that may have predictive significance however other studies found that inconsistent with any prognostic value.
  • Histological and radiological parameters were considered over the past decade as an estimate for the patient outcome.
  • Conventional radiological findings as mild ground glass attenuation predicts physiologic improvement after steroid treatment. [5] As mild ground glass opacity on CT often regresses on treatment in patients who have histological DIP, but may not decrease as readily in those with histologic UIP. [6] However some areas of ground glass opacity not only regress with treatment, but it may progress to reticular opacity or honeycombing on follow-up evaluation [7] Predominant reticular opacity or honeycombing usually progress despite treatment. The extent of lung fibrosis on CT is an important predictor of survival. [8]
  • HRCT has a prognostic value as consistent HRCT findings are associated with the worst survival with median survival of 2.08, however inconsistent HRCT findings are associated with less mortality with more median survival 5.79. [9]
  • Composite index increase the prognostic power as multiple parameters are more accurate than single parameter.
  • Composite physiologic index (CPI) from simple spirometry and DlCO and demonstrated that CPI was linked to mortality more closely than the individual pulmonary function test values. [9]
  • The CPI score is easier to generate because no radiographic scoring or exercise data are required. But still wide validation studies for CPI are required

Major Idiopathic Interstitial Pneumonias

Chronic Fibrosing IIPs

Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis
  • The most common and the worst prognosis of chronic IIPs.
  • survival time depends on the definition of the diagnosis ( reticular background on conventional X-ray or onset of the symptoms which usually is 2-3 years after the radiological findings) [3]
  • 5-yr mortality 80%, median survival 2-3 yr
  • Mortality is most frequently due to respiratory failure (38.7%); other causes of death include heart failure (14.4%), bronchogenic carcinoma (10.4%), ischemic heart disease (9.5%), infection (6.5%), and pulmonary embolism (3.4%) [10]
  • Nonfatal disease-associated complications include pneumothorax, corticosteroid-induced metabolic side effects and myopathy, and therapy-related immunosuppression.
Idiopathic Nonspecific Interstitial Pneumonia
  • Better outcome than IPF
  • Cellular type is more common than Fibrotic type
  • The cellular NSIP is better than fibrosing type of NSIP
  • Larger studies are needed to understand the clinical course of NSIP
  • Median survival for cellular NSIP > 10 yr and 5-yr mortality <10%, however the median survival for fibrotic NSIP is 6-8 yr, and 5-yr mortality >10% [11]
  • other studies showed that 10-yr survival of fibrotic NSIP is 35%,[12] 5-Yr survival rate is 43%, [13] 25% deterioration of lung function despite treatment.[14]

Acute/Subacute IIPs

Cryptogenic Organizing Pneumonia
  • 5-yr mortality < 5% [11]
Acute Interstitial Pneumonia (Hamman-Rich Syndrome)

Smoking-related IIPs

Respiratory Bronchiolitis-Interstitial Lung Disease
  • No death reported, 5-yr mortality < 5% [11]
Desquamative Interstitial Pneumonia
  • No death reported, 5-yr mortality < 5% [11]

Rare Idiopathic Interstitial Pneumonias

  • Idiopathic lymphoid interstitial pneumonia
  • Idiopathic pleuroparenchymal fibroelastosis

Biomarkers

The functional lung capacity, pulmonary functions and mortality have been linked to some biomarkers. For example some studies showed that rapidly deteriorating lung function and higher mortality have been associated with high serum level of epithelial or macrophage-related proteins such as SP-A, SP-D, KL-6 (Krebs von den Lungen-6), CCL18 (chemokine ligand-18), and MMP-7 (matrix metalloproteinase-7) [15] [16] [17]
