Cyclophosphamide and Azathioprine vs Tacrolimus in Antisynthetase Syndrome-related Interstitial Lung Disease
"Antisynthetase syndrome (ASS) is one of the most severe inflammatory myopathy (IM), due to pulmonary involvement (interstitial lung disease, ILD). Until now, the most commonly used immunosuppresive therapy in Europe is Cyclophosphamide followed by different immunosuppressive drugs as maintenance therapy, including Azathioprine (and so called " European Strategy "). In the USA however, the first-line immunosuppressive treatment is Tacrolimus (so called " American Strategy "). None of these two different strategies has ever been studied prospectively, and there is no clear comparison of short and long-term treatment efficacy and...

Diagnostic Value of KL-6 in ILD
KL-6 may be a useful biomarker in patients with interstitial lung disease, but there is limited information in non-Asian populations. Therefore, it is necessary to carry out studies in other populations to confirm the diagnostic values of the biomarker and its prognostic implication. Hypothesis KL-6 may be a useful biomarker in the management of interstitial lung diseases. But it is necessary to know more about its utility in the European population. Study Objectives: - To determine the concentration of KL-6 in serum of patients with pulmonary fibrosis at the time of diagnosis compared to patients without...

Digital Outpatient Services
More people are living with chronic or long-term disorders together and they live longer, which gives an increase in patients who need health services. Seen in the context of the shorter lengths of stay, and the outpatient clinics' increasing responsibility, there is a need to increase outpatient capacity without leading to more patient readmissions. Further, new services should take into account the patients capacity to benefit from the services, and their level of health literacy is crucial. By developing new services using technology, patients will be able to be followed up closely in their own home with adapted treatment and ...
