Issue Date: | 2010 | Publisher: | BMC | Source: | RESPIRATORY RESEARCH, 11 (Art N° 89) | Abstract: | Background: Biologic predictors or biomarkers of survival in pulmonary fibrosis with a worse prognosis, more specifically in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis would help the clinician in deciding whether or not to treat since treatment carries a potential risk for adverse events. These decisions are made easier if accurate and objective measurements of the patients' clinical status can predict the risk of progression to death. | Document URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/1942/31735 | Link to publication/dataset: | https://respiratory-research.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/1465-9921-11-89 | e-ISSN: | 1465-993X | DOI: | 10.1186/1465-9921-11-89 | ISI #: | WOS:000280287900001 | Rights: | 2010 Thomeer et al; licensee BioMed Central Ltd.
