Clinical significance of the determination of surfactant proteins A and D in assessing the activity of lung sarcoidosis

Abstract: The results of a clinical study showing the importance of surfactant proteins A and D in assessing the activity and progression of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis and chronic lung sarcoidosis are presented. Aim. To study the clinical significance of SP-A, SP-D in assessing the activity of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis and sarcoidosis. We examined 81 patients with morphologically confirmed diagnoses of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (ILF) and sarcoidosis, a control group of 20 healthy individuals. The MSCT of the … Show more

“…It has been reported that SP-D correlates with the severity of interstitial lung disease [ 40 ] and in our study, there is a statistically significant correlation between SP-D concentrations and disease extent. Other studies have demonstrated possible prognostic implications, with serum concentrations of SP-D corresponding to worsening DLCO% and HRCT evidence of progression of sarcoidosis pulmonary fibrosis [ 41 ].…”
