• #1 Interstitial Lung Disease: NHLBI Workshop on the Primary Prevention of Chronic Lung Diseases

  https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC4112506/

  Population-based, longitudinal studies spanning decades linking risk factors in childhood, adolescence and early adulthood to incident clinical interstitial lung disease (ILD) events in late adulthood have not been performed. […] Primary prevention strategies are host-directed interventions designed to modify adverse risk factors (i.e., smoking) with the goal of preventing the development of ILD, whereas primordial prevention for ILD can be defined as the elimination of external risk factors (i.e., environmental pollutants). […] Herein, we provide a number of initial steps required for the future implementation of prevention strategies; this statement discusses the rationale and available evidence that support potential opportunities for primordial and primary prevention, as well as fertile areas for future research of preventive intervention in ILD.

  https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC4112506/

  A better understanding of the phenotypic and molecular characteristics of subclinical ILD will increase our ability to identify at-risk populations and implement preventive strategies. […] The design of robust predictive models that identify those individuals at highest risk for the development of clinically relevant disease will provide opportunities for preventive strategies. […] To achieve this goal, we need to develop sensitive, high-throughput methods to screen large populations at risk for future development of pulmonary fibrosis. […] The high prevalence of ILD, availability of relatively effective immunosuppressive therapy, and increased mortality associated with cardiopulmonary involvement suggest that detection of subclinical ILD and early intervention, or strategies aimed at primary prevention of ILD, could improve outcomes in patients with RA.
