Abstract
BACKGROUND The INBUILD trial investigated the efficacy and safety of nintedanib versus placebo in patients with progressive fibrosing interstitial lung diseases (ILDs) other than idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). We aimed to establish the effects of nintedanib in subgroups based on ILD diagnosis. METHODS The INBUILD trial was a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel group trial done at 153 sites in 15 countries. Participants had an investigator-diagnosed fibrosing ILD other than IPF, with chest imaging features of fibrosis of more than 10% extent on high resolution CT (HRCT), forced vital capacity (FVC) of 45% or more predicted, and diffusing capacity of the lung for carbon monoxide (DLco) of at least 30% and less than 80% predicted. Participants fulfilled protocol-defined criteria for ILD progression in the 24 months before screening, despite management considered appropriate in clinical practice for the individual ILD. Participants were randomly assigned 1:1 by means of a pseudo-random number generator to receive nintedanib 150 mg twice daily or placebo for at least 52 weeks. Participants, investigators, and other personnel involved in the trial and analysis were masked to treatment assignment until after database lock. In this subgroup analysis, we assessed the rate of decline in FVC (mL/year) over 52 weeks in patients who received at least one dose of nintedanib or placebo in five prespecified subgroups based on the ILD diagnoses documented by the investigators: hypersensitivity pneumonitis, autoimmune ILDs, idiopathic non-specific interstitial pneumonia, unclassifiable idiopathic interstitial pneumonia, and other ILDs. The trial has been completed and is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, number NCT02999178. FINDINGS Participants were recruited between Feb 23, 2017, and April 27, 2018. Of 663 participants who received at least one dose of nintedanib or placebo, 173 (26%) had chronic hypersensitivity pneumonitis, 170 (26%) an autoimmune ILD, 125 (19%) idiopathic non-specific interstitial pneumonia, 114 (17%) unclassifiable idiopathic interstitial pneumonia, and 81 (12%) other ILDs. The effect of nintedanib versus placebo on reducing the rate of FVC decline (mL/year) was consistent across the five subgroups by ILD diagnosis in the overall population (hypersensitivity pneumonitis 73·1 [95% CI -8·6 to 154·8]; autoimmune ILDs 104·0 [21·1 to 186·9]; idiopathic non-specific interstitial pneumonia 141·6 [46·0 to 237·2]; unclassifiable idiopathic interstitial pneumonia 68·3 [-31·4 to 168·1]; and other ILDs 197·1 [77·6 to 316·7]; p=0·41 for treatment by subgroup by time interaction). Adverse events reported in the subgroups were consistent with those reported in the overall population. INTERPRETATION The INBUILD trial was not designed or powered to provide evidence for a benefit of nintedanib in specific diagnostic subgroups. However, its results suggest that nintedanib reduces the rate of ILD progression, as measured by FVC decline, in patients who have a chronic fibrosing ILD and progressive phenotype, irrespective of the underlying ILD diagnosis.

Abstract
Metabolic syndrome (MetS) and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) are related to a higher incidence of cardio-vascular diseases and mortality in patients. The aim of the study was to define the potential use of anthropometric factors for the evaluation of OSA risk in patients with diagnosed MetS. The patient group consisted of 50 obese men with MetS (mean age 49 ± 9 years). The following anthropometric indices were assessed: body mass index (BMI), neck circumference (NC), waist circumference (WC), and waist-to-hip ratio (WHR). In addition, blood glucose and lipid profile were investigated. On the basis of polysomnography, clinical symptoms, and Epworth Sleep Scale, patients were stratified into the OSA group accompanied by MetS (n = 31) and the MetS alone group taken as control (n = 19). OSA was evaluated as severe in 26 out of the 31 patients (>30 apneic episodes per hour). We found a significantly larger NC in the OSA with MetS group then that in the MetS alone group. Further, NC associated with the increase in the apnea/hypopnea index. However, the other anthropometric indices investigated failed to differentiate the two groups. We conclude that increased neck circumference in patients suffering from metabolic syndrome is a risk factor for the development of OSA.

Abstract
Sarcoidosis is a granulomatous disease with an increased accumulation of T cells in lungs as a result of on-site proliferation and chemotaxis induced by chemokines. It has already been demonstrated that CCL3-5 levels were increased in BAL fluid of sarcoidosis patients. To analyze the expression of CCL3-5 chemokines by T-cell subtypes (CD4+, CD8+, Th1, Th2, Tc1 or Tc2) in the lungs of sarcoidosis patients, fifteen untreated sarcoidosis patients and eighteen control subjects were enrolled in this study. CD4+ and CD8+ cells were isolated from BAL fluid by positive magnetic selection. The expression of CCL3-5 and other cytokines in CD4+ and CD8+ cells were measured by flow cytometry. The percentage of CD4+ or CD8+ cells expressing CCL4 were significantly higher in sarcoidosis patients (22.3% and 58.1%) compared to those seen in healthy subjects (11.1% and 16.5%, P = 0.04 and P = 0.02, respectively). In addition, the expression of CCL3, CCL4 and CCL5 was significantly elevated in CD8+ cells (8.9%, 58.1% and 2.1%) compared to CD4+ cells (2.1%, 22.3% and 0.7%; P = 0.04, P = 0.009 and P = 0.04, respectively), whereas CCL4 was expressed by significantly more Tc1 than Th1 cells in sarcoidosis patients (P = 0.006). Our study shows the possible role of CD8+ cells and CD4+ cells in recruiting T cells to the site of inflammation in sarcoidosis through the release of CCL4, either alone or together with Th1/Tc1-associated cytokines.

Abstract
Authors discussed the known risk factors of venous thromboembolism (VTE), which is complex disease with two manifestations: deep venous thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE). Acquired risk factors of VTE are following: age over 40 years, bed rest, surgery, trauma, cancer, myocardial infarction, ischemic stroke, use of oral contraceptives, hormone-replacement therapy, pregnancy and puerperium, previous VTE, long lasting travel and presence of antiphospholipid antibodies. Group of genetic defects predisposing to thromboembolic events are called thrombophilia. The best known causes of thrombophilia are: resistance to activated protein C (factor V Leiden), the prothrombin 20210A, protein C deficiency, protein S deficiency, antithrombin deficiency, hyperhomocysteinemia and abnormality in the fibrinolytic system. Genetic predisposition to thrombosis may be detected in up to one-third of patients with VTER and more than 50% of patients with familial thrombosis. Detection of factor V Leiden is important for patients: with recurrent incidences of VTE, with other known causes of thrombophilia and in members of families with frequent occurrence of VTE. It is important also to detect deficiency of: protein C, protein S and especially of antithrombin in patient with previous VTE, because such patients have 8 to 10 fold increase risk of next incident of VTE. Chronic prevention of thrombosis should be used in all these cases.
