Abstract

BAL, bronchoalveolar lavage; FEV 1 , forced expiratory volume in 1 s; FVC, forced vital capacity; HRCT, high resolution computed tomography; ILD, interstitial lung disease; P(A-a)O 2 , difference between alveolar and arterial pressure; PaO 2 , arterial oxygen tension; TLCO, carbon monoxide transfer factor; VC, vital capacity.*Modified from American Thoracic Society/European Respiratory Society recommendations. 2 {In the immunocompetent adult the presence of all of the major diagnostic criteria as well as at least three of the four minor criteria increases the likelihood of a correct clinical diagnosis of IPF.{The requirement for transbronchial lung biopsy/bronchoalveolar lavage within the diagnostic criteria for IPF is currently under review.

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.
