Efficacy of Intensive Cholecalciferol Monitoring and Supplementation on Serum vitD Levels in Pediatric Patients With CF
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is an autosomal recessive disease caused by alterations in the Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Conductance Regulator (CFTR) gene, characterized by multisystemic alterations, mainly in the lung, intestine, sweat, and bile ducts. In addition to pulmonary involvement, the presence of exocrine pancreatic insufficiency also increases the risk of survival, as it is associated with malnutrition and deficiency of fat-soluble vitamins, such as vitamin D. Vitamin D, in addition to its role in bone health, in the case of CF patients with chronic inflammation, it has been suggested that many of the cytokines that regulate...

Efficacy of Steroid Pulse Therapy in Acute Exacerbation of Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (AE-IPF) Admitted in ER
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis is the most severe form of interstitial lung disease. It is known that the prognosis is poor due to extensive inflammation and fibrosis of the lung parenchyma. In case of acute exacerbation, the prognosis becomes worse. In early studies, the 3-month mortality rate reached 50-80%, and in a recent study, the 1-month survival rate was 66%, and the 3-month survival rate was 41%. It is known that 20% of patients with IPF will experience acute exacerbations in their lifetime. The most commonly used treatment for such acute exacerbations is antibiotics and high-dose steroids, or steroid pulse therapy....

Evaluation of Lung T1-MRI in Pediatric Cystic Fibrosis Patients
In this observational study, the investigators evaluate the sensitivity of T1-MRI to identify lung perfusion changes in pediatric patients with CF (age = 6-11) before and after initiating FDA-approved Trikafta therapy. The investigators compare these Lung T1 MRI assessments (% Normal lung perfusion) to currently best-available assessments of lung function in CF patients (i.e., MBW (LCI( and Spirometry (FEV1 % Predicted).

Evaluation of Post-covid 19 Patients Who Receive Ozonetheraphy With Thorax CT
It is known that enhances wound healing by oxidative stress and supports immune system besides it is cheap and has not any side effects. Aim of the study is to prevent pulmonary fibrosis by using ozone therapy as a supportive therapy on the patients who have pneumonia and ground glass opacity on thorax CT both in ICU and wards. Patients will follow for a year.

Evaluation of Postmortem Pulmonary Interstitial Fibrosis Severity and EGFR Positivity in Covid-19 Pneumonia
The aim of this study is to examine the relationship between the severity of fibrosis in the lung tissue and EGFR positivity in patients who died due to covid-19 pneumonia, with the demographic characteristics, comorbidities, biochemistry values, treatments they received, and radiological appearances. Transthoracic tru-cut biopsy will be performed on patients who have died in the intensive care unit with the diagnosis of Covid 19 pneumonia. EGFR positivity will be evaluated in the material taken. The relationship between the severity of fibrosis and the demographic data of the patients, the drugs used and their radiological ...

Evolution of Lung 18FDG Uptake in Patients With Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis and Receiving Pirfenidone
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a rare and fatal lung disease characterized by unpredictable changes with variable kinetics of progression. Changes in pulmonary function (FVC, DLCO) assessed at the time of diagnosis, or decline in pulmonary function within 12 months after diagnosis, are the best predictors of survival, but poorly predicted disease activity and evolution. 18FDG positron emission tomography (18FDG PETscan) provides the ability to quantify cell metabolism in vivo and non-invasively using a labeled non-metabolizable substrate. Several parameters can be measured in an automated and reproducible way, such as the...

Exhaled Breath Analysis Using eNose Technology as a Biomarker for Diagnosis and Disease Progression in Fibrotic ILD
The ILDnose study a multinational, multicenter, prospective, longitudinal study in outpatients with pulmonary fibrosis. The aim is to assess the accuracy of eNose technology as diagnostic tool for diagnosis and differentiation between the most prevalent fibrotic interstitial lung diseases. The value of eNose as biomarker for disease progression and response to treatment is also assessed. Besides, validity of several questionnaires for pulmonary fibrosis is investigated.
