Lung fibrosis extent on quantified CT predicts survival in IPF
The extent of fibrotic abnormality on baseline computed tomography (CT), quantified using data-driven texture analysis (DTA), is predictive of outcomes in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), regardless of pulmonary function, suggests a study.

Vilobelimab augments treatment armamentarium for critically ill COVID-19 patients
In the phase III part of the PANAMO trial, the anti-C5a monoclonal antibody vilobelimab, when added to standard of care (SoC), improved survival in COVID-19 patients who required invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV).

Breath-holding may predict adverse outcomes in COVID-19 patients
A higher prediction score in breath-holding is associated with nearly a fivefold increased likelihood of respiratory failure in COVID-19 patients, as well as with greater severity of pulmonary deficits seen in chest imaging, a study has shown.
