Abstract
Introduction: Patients with chronic lung disease (CLD) experience a heavy symptom burden at the end of life, but their uptake of palliative care is notably low. Having an understanding of a patient's prognosis would facilitate shared decision making on treatment options and care planning between patients, families, and their clinicians, and complement clinicians' assessments of patients' unmet palliative needs. While literature on prognostication in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) has been established and summarized, information for other CLDs remains less consolidated. Summarizing the mortality risk factors for non-COPD CLDs would be a novel contribution to literature. Hence, we aimed to identify and summarize the prognostic factors associated with non-COPD CLDs from the literature. Methods: We conducted a scoping review following published guidelines. We searched MEDLINE, Embase, PubMed, CINAHL, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science for studies published between 2000 and 2020 that described non-COPD CLD populations with an all-cause mortality risk period of up to three years. Only primary studies which reported associations with mortality adjusted through multivariable analysis were included. Results: Fifty-five studies were reviewed, with 53 based on interstitial lung disease (ILD) or connective tissue disease-associated ILD populations and two in bronchiectasis populations. Prognostic factors were classified into 10 domains, with pulmonary function and disease being the largest. Older age, lower forced vital capacity, and lower carbon monoxide diffusing capacity were most commonly investigated and associated with statistically significant increases in mortality risks. Conclusions: This comprehensive overview of prognostic factors for patients with non-COPD CLDs would facilitate the identification and prioritization of candidate factors to predict short-term mortality, supporting tool development for decision making and to identify high-risk patients for palliative needs assessments. Literature focused on patients with ILDs, and more studies should be conducted on other CLDs to bridge the knowledge gap.

Abstract
Antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody vasculitis-associated interstitial lung disease (AAV-ILD) is a potentially life-threatening disease. However, very little research has been done on the condition's mortality risk. Hence, our objective is to find out the factors influencing the prognosis of AAV-ILD and employ these findings to create a nomogram model. Patients with AAV-ILD who received treatment at the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University during the period from March 1, 2011, to April 1, 2022 were selected for this research. The development of nomogram entailed a synergistic integration of univariate, Lasso, and multivariate Cox regression analyses. Internal validation ensued through bootstrap techniques involving 1000 re-sampling iterations. Discrimination and calibration were assessed utilizing Harrell's C-index, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, and calibration curve. Model performance was evaluated through integrated discrimination improvement (IDI), net reclassification improvement (NRI), and likelihood ratio test. The net benefit of the model was evaluated using decision curve analysis (DCA). A cohort comprising 192 patients was enrolled for analysis. Throughout observation period, 32.29% of the population died. Key factors such as cardiac involvement, albumin, smoking history, and age displayed substantial prognostic relevance in AAV-ILD. These factors were incorporated to craft a predictive nomogram. Impressively, the model exhibited robust performance, boasting a Harrell's C index of 0.826 and an AUC of 0.940 (95% CI 0.904-0.976). The calibration curves depicted a high degree of harmony between predicted outcomes and actual observations. Significantly enhancing discriminative ability compared to the ILD-GAP model, the nomogram was validated through the IDI, NRI, and likelihood ratio test. DCA underscored the superior predictive value of the predictive model over the ILD-GAP model. The internal validation further affirmed this efficacy, with a mean Harrell's C-index of 0.815 for the predictive model. The nomogram model can be employed to predict the prognosis of patients with AAV-ILD. Moreover, the model performance is satisfactory. In the future, external datasets could be utilized for external validation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The ILD-GAP scoring system is known to be useful in predicting prognosis in patients with interstitial lung disease (ILD). An elevated monocyte count was associated with increased risks of IPF poor prognosis. We examined whether the ILD-GAP scoring system combined with the monocyte ratio (ILD-GAPM) is superior to the conventional ILD-GAP model in predicting ILD prognosis. METHODS In patients with ILD treated between April 2013 and April 2017, we were retrospectively assessed the relationships between baseline clinical parameters, including age, sex, Charlson Comorbidity Index score (CCIS), ILD diagnosis, blood biomarkers, pulmonary function test results, and disease outcomes. In ILD patients were included idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), idiopathic nonspecific interstitial pneumonia (iNSIP), collagen vascular disease-related interstitial pneumonia (CVD-IP), chronic hypersensitivity pneumonitis (CHP), and unclassifiable ILD (UC-ILD). We also assessed the ability to predict prognosis was compared between the ILD-GAP and ILD-GAPM models. RESULTS A total of 179 patients (mean age, 73 years) were assessed. All of them were taken pulmonary function test, including percentage predicted diffusion capacity for carbon monoxide. ILD patients included 56 IPF cases, 112 iNSIP and CVD-IP cases, 6 CHP cases and 5 UC-ILD cases. ILD-GAPM provided a greater area under the receiver-operating characteristic curve (0.747) than ILD-GAP (0.710) for predicting 3-year ILD-related events. Furthermore, the log-rank test showed that the Kaplan-Meier curves in ILD-GAPM were significantly different by stage (P = 0.015), but not by stage in ILD-GAP (P = 0.074). CONCLUSIONS The ILD-GAPM model may be a more accurate predictor of prognosis for ILD patients than the ILD-GAP model.

Abstract
Coexisting anti-MDA5 and anti-PL-7 antibodies are extremely rare. Anti-MDA5 is associated with rapidly progressive interstitial lung disease (RP-ILD), while anti-PL-7 is often associated with chronic or subacute ILD and better outcomes than RP-ILD. We report a 41-year-old woman diagnosed with dermatomyositis (DM)-associated ILD positive for anti-MDA5 and anti-PL-7.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Progressive fibrosis can occur in connective tissue disease (CTD)-related interstitial lung disease (ILD) and make the prognosis worse. OBJECTIVES This study aimed to investigate factors related to progressive pulmonary fibrosis (PPF) phenotype in CTD-ILDs. DESIGN Medical records of patients diagnosed as CTD and ILD at a single, tertiary hospital in South Korea were retrospectively reviewed. METHODS Patients whose lung functions were followed up for more than a year were included in analysis. PPF was defined as forced vital capacity (FVC) declined ⩾10% or diffusion capacity of carbon monoxide (DLco) ⩾15%. RESULTS Of 110 patients with CTD-ILD, 24.5% progressed into PPF. Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and Sjogren's disease accounted for more than 63% of PPF. Compositions of CTD type were similar between PPF and non-PPF. Clinical characteristics and proportion of usual interstitial pneumonia (UIP) pattern on chest images were also similar between PPF and non-PPF. Approximately 10% of patients in both groups were treated with anti-fibrotic agents. Use of systemic steroids and/or other immunomodulating agents lowered the risk of developing PPF in CTD-ILD patients after adjusting for gender-age-physiology score and smoking status (adjusted odds ratio: 0.25, 95% confidence interval: 0.07-0.85). CONCLUSION About a quarter of CTD-ILD progressed into PPF. The use of immunomodulating agents lowered the risk of developing PPF. To improve outcomes of patients, future studies need to detect patients at higher risk for PPF earlier and set up clinical guidelines for treatment strategies in the process of PPF.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Fibrotic hypersensitivity pneumonitis (fHP) is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Interstitial lung disease-gender-age-physiology (ILD-GAP) performance in fHP outside the initial cohort was never performed. AIM To assess the ILD-GAP index's ability to predict mortality in a Portuguese cohort of patients with fHP and analyse whether other clinical variables add value. METHODS Retrospective analysis of fHP cohort in two Portuguese ILD centres. The baseline ILD-GAP index was calculated. Survival was analysed in months; mortality was the primary outcome. Univariate and multivariate analyses to identify mortality risk factors were performed. RESULTS A total of 141 patients were included. Fifty-three patients (37.6%) died during the follow-up. The usual interstitial pneumonia (UIP) pattern was found in 49.6%, and their survival was inferior to non-UIP [32 months (interquartile range, IQR = 19, 60) versus 52 months (IQR = 28, 98), p = 0.048]. Patients with an ILD-GAP index higher than three double their risk of mortality [hazard ratio (HR) = 6.48, 95% confidence interval (CI) = (3.03-13.96)] when compared with the patients with an index between 2 and 3 [HR = 3.04, 95% CI = (1.62-5.71)] adjusting for acute exacerbation history. Even though UIP patients had worse survival, it did not reach statistical significance when UIP pattern was added to this model. Acute exacerbation history was an independent risk factor for mortality; however, ILD-GAP still predicted mortality after adjusting for this factor. PaO2 and 6-minute walk test desaturation were not significant risk factors. CONCLUSION ILD-GAP index is a good predictor for mortality in fHP, even after adjusting for other mortality risk factors.

Abstract
Background The exact risk assessment is crucial for the management of connective tissue disease-associated interstitial lung disease (CTD-ILD) patients. In the present study, we develop a nomogram to predict 3‑ and 5-year mortality by using machine learning approach and test the ILD-GAP model in Chinese CTD-ILD patients. Methods CTD-ILD patients who were diagnosed and treated at the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University were enrolled based on a prior well-designed criterion between February 2011 and July 2018. Cox regression with the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) was used to screen out the predictors and generate a nomogram. Internal validation was performed using bootstrap resampling. Then, the nomogram and ILD-GAP model were assessed via likelihood ratio testing, Harrell’s C index, integrated discrimination improvement (IDI), the net reclassification improvement (NRI) and decision curve analysis. Results A total of 675 consecutive CTD-ILD patients were enrolled in this study, during the median follow-up period of 50 (interquartile range, 38–65) months, 158 patients died (mortality rate 23.4%). After feature selection, 9 variables were identified: age, rheumatoid arthritis, lung diffusing capacity for carbon monoxide, right ventricular diameter, right atrial area, honeycombing, immunosuppressive agents, aspartate transaminase and albumin. A predictive nomogram was generated by integrating these variables, which provided better mortality estimates than ILD-GAP model based on the likelihood ratio testing, Harrell’s C index (0.767 and 0.652 respectively) and calibration plots. Application of the nomogram resulted in an improved IDI (3- and 5-year, 0.137 and 0.136 respectively) and NRI (3- and 5-year, 0.294 and 0.325 respectively) compared with ILD-GAP model. In addition, the nomogram was more clinically useful revealed by decision curve analysis. Conclusions The results from our study prove that the ILD-GAP model may exhibit an inapplicable role in predicting mortality risk in Chinese CTD-ILD patients. The nomogram we developed performed well in predicting 3‑ and 5-year mortality risk of Chinese CTD-ILD patients, but further studies and external validation will be required to determine the clinical usefulness of the nomogram.

Abstract
Background. Anti-melanoma differentiation-associated gene 5 (MDA-5) antibody is associated with respiratory failure and death in patients with idiopathic inflammatory myositis (IIM) and interstitial lung disease (ILD). This study aimed to investigate clinical parameters associated with mortality in anti-MDA-5 antibody-positive patients. Methods. We retrospectively reviewed the clinical and laboratory data, and pulmonary function test results in 55 anti-MDA-5 antibody-positive patients. A comparison was made between the survivors and non-survivors at the 12-month follow-up. Results. A total of 13 patients (23.6%) died within 12 months. Non-survivors had higher GAP scores (gender, age, and physiology score for idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis) (1 vs. 6, p < 0.01) and CA-153 (16.4 vs. 72.9, p < 0.01). In addition, rapid progressive ILD, fever, peak ferritin, leukocyte count, lactate dehydrogenase, CT score, intravenous immunoglobulin, mycophenolic acid, CMV infections, pneumocystis pneumonia, and pneumothorax were significantly associated with increased risks of 1-year mortality, while forced vital capacity, forced expiratory volume in one second, and diffusion capacity for carbon monoxide were correlated with decreased risk of 1-year mortality. Conclusions. Our study results suggest that GAP scores and CA-153 could be prognostic factors for 1-year mortality in anti-MDA-5 antibody-positive patients. A prompt pulmonary function test and CA-153 are essential for these patients to guide further management.

Abstract
Autoimmune-associated interstitial lung disease (ILD) is a widespread and clinically significant form of autoimmune diseases. ILD can be present in most type of autoimmune diseases. Scleroderma, Sjogren syndrome, rheumatoid arthritis, inflammatory myositis, systemic lupus erythematosus, and mixed connective tissue disease are all examples of autoimmune disorders that can cause ILD. Treatment and prognosis vary from that of other forms of ILD depending on the etiology and pathogenesis of the autoimmune disease. As a result, glucocorticoids and immunosuppressive agents are the mainstays of treatment for autoimmune-associated ILD, despite the fact that there is little high-level evidence to guide the treatment owing to limited data from randomized controlled trials. Immunosuppressive agents including cyclophosphamide, tacrolimus, azathioprine, and mycophenolate mofetil can be used to reduce the dose of glucocorticoids and the inflammatory cascade and inhibit various pro-inflammatory cytokines. Studies have also started alternative therapeutic approaches, such as biological and antifibrotic agents, and traditional immunosuppressive agents. In this review, we summarize available treatment options and recent advances in therapeutic strategies for patients with autoimmune-associated ILD.

Abstract
Pulmonary complications in CTD are common and can involve the interstitium, airways, pleura and pulmonary vasculature. ILD can occur in all CTD (CTD-ILD), and may vary from limited, non-progressive lung involvement, to fulminant, life-threatening disease. Given the potential for major adverse outcomes in CTD-ILD, accurate diagnosis, assessment and careful consideration of therapeutic intervention are a priority. Limited data are available to guide management decisions in CTD-ILD. Autoimmune-mediated pulmonary inflammation is considered a key pathobiological pathway in these disorders, and immunosuppressive therapy is generally regarded the cornerstone of treatment for severe and/or progressive CTD-ILD. However, the natural history of CTD-ILD in individual patients can be difficult to predict, and deciding who to treat, when and with what agent can be challenging. Establishing realistic therapeutic goals from both the patient and clinician perspective requires considerable expertise. The document aims to provide a framework for clinicians to aid in the assessment and management of ILD in the major CTD. A suggested approach to diagnosis and monitoring of CTD-ILD and, where available, evidence-based, disease-specific approaches to treatment have been provided.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Risk prediction is challenging in patients with idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIM) and acute exacerbation of interstitial lung disease (AE-ILD) because of heterogeneity and patient-specific variables. Our objective was to assess whether mortality is accurately predicted in patients with IIM and AE-ILD by using the gender age physiology ILD (GAP-ILD) model, a clinical prediction model that was previously validated in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. METHODS A retrospective cohort study was conducted in the First Affiliated Hospital, Zhejiang University, wherein 60 consecutive patients with IIM and AE-ILD admitted between February 2011 and April 2019. The GAP-ILD was assessed retrospectively on the basis of gender, age and pulmonary function test. RESULTS Patients with AE-ILD (n = 60) were identified and collected, 26 deaths occurred during follow-up, and the non-survivors group presented a higher level of GAP-ILD index (P = 0.005), bacterial infection (P = 0.013), and myositis disease activity assessment (MYOACT) (P = 0.031). The subsequent multivariate logistic regression analysis of overall mortality in AE-ILD revealed that bacterial infection (OR 5.275, P = 0.037) and GAP-ILD index (OR 2.292, P = 0.011) conferred significant risk of mortality. The GAP-ILD index was able to separate patients with AE-ILD into two groups with a statistically significant difference in survival rate (log rank P = 0.002). Satisfactory mortality estimation was maintained in the corresponding GAP-ILD index across the AE-ILD group. CONCLUSION The GAP-ILD model preforms well in risk prediction of mortality among patients with IIM and AE-ILD. Pulmonary bacterial infection can also be taken as an initial predictor of poor prognosis in patients with IIM and AE-ILD that must be taken seriously.
