DM and its associated micro andmacrovascular complications result in significant morbidity and mortality. Themicrovascular complications are usually manifested as retinopathy, neuropathy,nephropathy and macrovascular complications generally affect the cardiovascularsystem. In addition to these complications, DM also affects the lungs because of itsrich vascularity and abundance in connective tissue (collagen and elastin). DMhas been found to cause microvascular complications and proliferation ofextracellular connective tissue in the lungs, leading to decline in lung function in arestrictive pattern. Interstitial lung disease (ILD) includes a diverse group ofdisease conditions characterized by different degrees of inflammation and fibrosisin the pulmonary parenchyma. Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is one of thecommon type of idiopathic interstitial pneumonia with a high mortality rate. IPFis characterized by chronic progressive fibrosis leading to progressive respiratoryfailure. In this review we focus on lung as the target organ in DM and theassociation of DM and ILD with special emphasis on IPF.展开更多

Fatigue is a frequent complaint, and it is likely that poor sleep quality is a significant contributor. A number of studies have shown that sleep disordered breathing is prevalent in this population, particularly in the idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis subgroup. The factors that predispose these patients to obstructive sleep apnoea are not well understood, however it is believed that reduced caudal traction on the upper airway can enhance collapsibility. Ventilatory control system instability may also be an important factor, particularly in those with increased chemo-responsiveness, and in hypoxic conditions. Transient, repetitive nocturnal oxygen desaturation is frequently observed in interstitial lung disease, both with and without associated obstructive apnoeas. There is increasing evidence that sleep-desaturation is associated with increased mortality, and may be important in the pathogenesis of pulmonary hypertension in this population.展开更多

Direct hemoperfusion with polymyxin B-immobilized fiber columns(PMX-DHP) was originally introduced for the treatment of septic shock. Application of PMX-DHP to the treatment of acute exacerbations of IPF may improve oxygenation and survival of the patients with the disease. In addition to acute exacerbations of IPF, PMXDHP has been applied to acute respiratory failure fromvarious causes; an amyopathic dermatomyositis patient who developed rapidly progressive interstitial lung disease(ILD) with elevated anti-CADM-140/MDA5 autoantibody and a patient with severe amiodarone pulmonary toxicity. It is also demonstrated that PMX-DHP performed on the first day of steroid pulse therapy may improve the prognosis of patients with rapidly progressive ILDs in a case-control setting. PMX treatment decreases not only various circulating molecules but also inflammatory cells, in particular activated monocytes, producing such mediators. Although the incidence of acute exacerbations of IPF is too low for proper randomization, in order to test the effects of PMX-DHP on the disease, a cohort or casecontrol analytic study needs to be conducted, preferably from more than one center or research group.展开更多
