However, the clinical significance of ANCA, particularly myeloperoxidase (MPO) -ANCA in IIP remains poorly understood. This study aims to investigate the differences between ANCA-positive and ANCA-negative IIP patients and further explore the impact of MPO-ANCA on clinical manifestations and prognostic outcomes.<h4>Methods</h4>We reviewed 408 ILD patients with available ANCA results from January 2012 to September 2021. 61 patients diagnosed with microscopic polyangiitis-associated ILD were not included in the analysis. A comparative analysis was performed between 61 isolated ANCA-positive IIP patients (ANCA-IIP group) and 286 ANCA-negative IIP patients (IIP group). We further conducted subgroup analyses based on the status of MPO-ANCA.<h4>Results</h4>Baseline clinical characteristics, pulmonary function tests, radiological features and all-cause mortality were similar between ANCA-IIP and IIP groups. When comparing the MPO-ANCA-IIP group with the IIP group and the non-MPO-ANCA-IIP group separately, a higher proportion of fibrotic features was observed on imaging (P = 0.004 vs IIP group; P = 0.031 vs non-MPO-ANCA-IIP group). After one year of treatment, the MPO-ANCA-IIP group showed a significantly greater decline in pulmonary function parameters compared to both the IIP group and the non-MPO-ANCA-IIP group. The frequency of pulmonary function decline was significantly higher in the MPO-ANCA-IIP group compared to the non-MPO-ANCA-IIP group (P = 0.026). Additionally, MPO-ANCA was not found to be statistically associated with mortality among patients with IIP.<h4>Conclusion</h4>ANCA-IIP patients had similar clinical characteristics and prognoses with IIP patients. MPO-ANCA-IIP patients had more prominent fibrosis on imaging and a greater decline in pulmonary function following treatment. Special attention should be paid to MPO-ANCA positivity during the diagnosis and treatment of IIP patients.<h4>Trial registration</h4>ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT04413149, May 2020."],"journal":["BMC pulmonary medicine"],"pubmed_title":["Clinical significance of anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody in idiopathic interstitial pneumonia: a retrospective observational study."],"pmcid":["PMC12123749"],"funding_grant_id":["2023YFC2507204","2022-PUMCH-C-017"],"pubmed_authors":["Zhang W","Li Z","Zhang T","Zhou C","Xue P","Wang C","Zhu W","Sun X","Shi J","Zhao J","Peng M"],"additional_accession":[]},"is_claimable":false,"name":"Clinical significance of anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody in idiopathic interstitial pneumonia: a retrospective observational study.","description":"<h4>Background</h4>Patients with anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-positive interstitial lung disease (ILD) but without evidence of systemic vasculitis have been reported in studies and are classified as isolated ANCA-positive idiopathic interstitial pneumonia (IIP).
