Prognostic value of pulmonary vessel-related structures in rapid progression of idiopathic inflammatory myopathy-associated interstitial lung disease: a retrospective study from two centres.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Pulmonary vessel-related structural (PVRS) abnormalities have been implicated in usual interstitial pneumonia; however, their significance in idiopathic inflammatory myopathy-associated interstitial lung disease (IIM-ILD) remains unclear. In this two-centre study, we evaluated the associations between PVRS parameters on high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) and rapid progression and prognosis in patients with IIM-ILD.

Methods

A total of 578 IIM-ILD patients (412 females; median age, 53 years) were included from retrospective ILD cohorts of two centres. Artificial intelligence (AI)-based quantification was performed on baseline HRCT to assess PVRS and interstitial lesions. The value of PVRS for rapid progression and prognosis was first evaluated in the cohort
