Alveolar cell composition in interstitial lung disease and the development of a pulmonary progressive fibrosing phenotype: a retrospective cohort study

Abstract Background Immunological bronchoalveolar lavage (iBAL) is a frequently employed diagnostic tool in interstitial lung disease (ILD). The association between iBAL cellular composition and disease progression remains elusive. We evaluated whether the alveolar cellular composition at initial di...
