Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis

Lederer, David J., Martinez, Fernando J.·2018·New England Journal of Medicine

Abstract

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis appears to be increasing in incidence. It requires early recognition and intervention with supportive care and pharmacologic agents to forestall its progression. Lung transplantation may be curative.

Claims the paper makes

This paper’s full text isn’t openly available, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • IPF is marked by interstitial pneumonia, dyspnea and cough, and histologically characterized by fibroblast proliferation and extracellular matrix remodeling.

    “marked by interstitial pneumonia, dyspnea and cough25, histologically characterized by fibroblast proliferation and extracellular matrix remodeling26–29.”
  • IPF is an age-related, progressive lung disease.

    “IPF is an age-related, progressive lung disease diagnosed by excluding other potential causes of interstitial lung disease (for example, environmental exposures, connective tissue disease, hypersensitivity pneumonitis or drug toxicities)24 and marked by interstitial pneumonia, dyspnea and cough25, histologically characterized by fibroblast proliferation and extracellular matrix remodeling26–29.”
  • Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis is a progressive, fatal, age-associated lung disease with poor survival.

    “Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a progressive, fatal, age-associated lung disease with poor survival1.”
  • IPF is a process that is characterized by epithelial cell injury, fibroblast expansion, augmented ECM remodeling, and lung architecture destruction.

    “IPF is a process that is characterized by epithelial cell injury, fibroblast expansion, augmented ECM remodeling, and lung architecture destruction (87, 141).”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
