Outcomes and predictors of progression in progressive pulmonary fibrosis
Patients who were older, had high CA-153 and LDH levels, had poor pulmonary function test results, or had a UIP-like pattern on chest HRCT were more likely to have indications for the progression of f-ILD to PPF. Increased SPAP and AE are independent risk factors for the prognosis of PPF patients, so additional attention should be given to such patients.
