Non-specific interstitial pneumonia

This study looks at whether drinking beetroot juice, which is high in nitrate, can help people with fibrotic interstitial lung disease exercise longer. Participants will drink either nitrate-rich or nitrate-free beetroot juice and then do a cycling test. The goal is to see if the…

This research project is looking at people with interstitial lung diseases (which affect the tissue around the air sacs) and airway diseases (like COPD). The goal is to better understand how these conditions often occur together and with other health problems. By studying a large…

This registry is following 3,000 adults with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) or other chronic fibrosing interstitial lung diseases (ILDs) to understand how these conditions progress over time. Researchers collect information on symptoms, treatments, quality of life, and store…

This study looks at why people with interstitial lung disease (ILD) often feel breathless and have trouble exercising. Researchers think leg muscle problems might be a cause. They will measure leg muscle strength and structure in 40 ILD patients and test how extra oxygen affects …

This observational study aims to find early biomarkers that can predict if a person's lung scarring (pulmonary fibrosis) will get worse quickly. Researchers will follow 450 adults with various types of interstitial lung disease, including IPF and other fibrotic conditions. Partic…

This study looks at 100 adults with fibrosing interstitial lung diseases (a type of lung scarring) to see if things like mold, dust, air pollution, and other home factors make the disease progress faster. Researchers will compare patients whose disease is getting worse to those w…

This study uses a special type of MRI (called 129Xe gas exchange MRI) to take detailed pictures of how the lungs and heart work together. Researchers want to understand how these images change after treatments like blood transfusions or oxygen therapy. The study involves 125 adul…

This study explores whether functional MRI can help doctors tell different types of interstitial lung disease apart and track how they change over time. About 200 adults with certain lung conditions will get MRI scans alongside standard CT scans. The goal is to see if MRI can pro…
