    Title translation Drug-associated interstitial lung disease: a diagnostic challenge.
    Abstract Drugs are frequently incriminated as the cause of interstitial pneumonia. There are two major mechanisms of drug-associated interstitial lung disease: direct toxicity and immunoallergic reaction. When a drug is suspected, the difficulty lies in obtaining proof. The chronology of the disease and its manifestations together with earlier evidence reported in the literature can lead to a tentative diagnosis of drug-associated interstitial pneumonia. Proof is obtained through surveillance during the disease course. In nearly all patients, therapeutic decisions must be taken on the basis of suspected drug involvement.

    Abstract The leukocyte migration inhibition test (LMIT) was performed in 8 cases of presumed drug-induced pneumonitis. The drugs involved were amiodarone in 3 cases, methotrexate in 2 cases, and fenofibrate, nadolol, and gold salt, each in one case. The agarose microdroplet technique for photoelectric readings of leukocyte migration inhibition was applied in the presence of a wide range of drug concentrations. LMIT was found to be positive in 6 of the 8 cases (75%). The presence of a positive LMIT indicates the elaboration of leukocyte migration inhibitory factor. These results suggest that cell-mediated immunity may play a role in the pathogenesis of drug-induced pneumonitis and that LMIT may be useful for the detection of causative drugs in patients with this condition.

    Title translation Epidemiology of micro-organisms responsible for community-acquired pneumonia.
    Abstract Pneumonias occupy a prominent situation among lower respiratory tract infections where they are remarkable for their potential mortality and for our relative knowledge of the responsible micro-organisms. Analysis and synthesis of each series published must answer several questions, such as: what are the lung diseases considered? which investigations have been performed? which criteria of imputability have been used? in which patients has the study been carried out? in which place, which period and which structure? In spite of methodological lacunae and of the inhomogeneous answers to the questions asked, there is some concordance between the series found in the literature. Thus, more than 90% of community-acquired pneumonias with microbiological identification are caused by Streptococcus pneumoniae, Haemophilus influenzae, Mycoplasma pneumoniae, Legionella pneumophila, Chlamydia psittaci (or pneumoniae), or Influenza A virus.

    Title translation Pulmonary pathology of drug origin.
    Abstract Over the past ten years, there has been an impressively growing number of reports about drug-induced pneumonitis (DIP) due to more than one hundred different drugs. The most troublesome question is how to establish with certainty the diagnosis. Usually, five criteria are necessary. 1) The administration of a drug on a more or less long term basis. 2) Newly occurrence of an interstitial pneumonitis (defined on symptomatology, radiological features, pulmonary function test results). 3) Elimination of all other causes of pneumonitis (haemodynamic, infectious, systemic, environmental diseases). 4) Broncho-alveolar lavage (BAL) cell data showing in most cases a lymphocyte alveolitis with an inverted CD4/CD8 ratio. In a certain number of ambiguous circumstances, coupling a provocation test with a sequentially performed BAL could firmly establish the diagnosis. 5) Rapid resolution within a few days or months of the pneumonitis as early as the incriminated drug administration is stopped. Nevertheless sometimes one or more of these criteria are not met, mainly when the pneumonitis is a fibrosis directly induced by a fibrosing toxic mechanism.
