    Abstract The global pandemic caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has had far-reaching impacts on patients with interstitial lung disease (ILD), from diagnosis to management. In addition, after infection, persistent parenchymal change is associated with ongoing symptoms and functional impairment even in patients without pre-existing lung disease. The challenge of investigating and treating these patients has often fallen to ILD physicians. This review therefore seeks to explore the relationship between COVID-19 and the interstitium, as well as the model of care for patients with pre-existing ILD and those patients with persistent disease following recovery from their initial infection.
    Educational aims: To understand the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on patients with existing interstitial lung disease.To explore the development of interstitial lung disease after COVID-19 infection.

    Abstract Purpose of review: There is an increasing recognition of the impact of sleep and sleep disorders on respiratory disease. Recent years have seen a new focus on the relationship between sleep and outcomes in patients interstitial lung disease (ILD).
    Recent findings: Recent studies suggest a high prevalence of sleep issues in ILD cohorts, which seem to have a meaningful negative impact on quality of life, disease progression, and survival.
    Summary: Sleep disordered breathing is common in ILD patients: obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) is found in 44-72% of ILD patients, and nocturnal hypoxemia is relatively common even in the absence of OSA. Sleep disorders are associated with worse quality of life in ILD, and may also predict more rapid disease progression and increased mortality. It remains unknown if nocturnal hypoxemia may itself cause progression of ILD. Uncontrolled and retrospective studies have suggested that treating OSA may improve ILD-related outcomes, but prospective studies are lacking in this field.

    Abstract Background: OSA and nocturnal hypoxemia (NH) are common in patients with fibrotic interstitial lung disease (F-ILD), but their relationship with disease outcomes remains unclear.
    Research question: What is the relationship between NH and OSA and clinical outcomes in patients with F-ILD?
    Study design and methods: This was a prospective observational cohort study of patients with F-ILD and without daytime hypoxemia. Patients underwent home sleep study at baseline and were followed up for at least 1 year or until death. NH was defined as ≥ 10% of sleep with oxygen saturation of < 90%. OSA was defined as an apnea-hypopnea index of ≥ 15 events/h.
    Results: Among 102 participants (male, 74.5%; age, 73.0 ± 8.7 years; FVC, 2.74 ± 0.78 L; 91.1% idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis), 20 patients (19.6%) demonstrated prolonged NH and 32 patients (31.4%) showed OSA. No significant differences were found between those with and without NH or OSA at baseline. Despite this, NH was associated with a more rapid decline in both quality of life as measured by the King's Brief Interstitial Lung Disease questionnaire (change, -11.3 ± 5.3 points in the NH group vs -6.7 ± 6.5 in those without NH; P = .005) and higher all-cause mortality at 1 year (hazard ratio, 8.21; 95% CI, 2.40-28.1; P < .001). No statistically significant difference was seen between the groups in annualized change in measures of pulmonary function testing.
    Interpretation: Prolonged NH, but not OSA, is associated with worsening disease-related quality of life and increased mortality in patients with F-ILD.

    Abstract SARS-CoV-2 infection is a multisystem disease with post-discharge sequelae. We report early follow-up data from one UK hospital of the initial 200 hospital inpatients with slow recovery from the condition. At 4 weeks post-discharge, 321/957 survivors (34%) had persistent symptoms. A structured outpatient clinical assessment protocol was designed, and outcomes from the first 200 patients seen 4-6 weeks post-discharge are presented here. In 80/200 (40%), we identified at follow-up a cardiorespiratory cause of breathlessness, including persistent parenchymal abnormality (64 patients), pulmonary embolism (four patients) and cardiac complications (eight patients). These findings occurred both in patients who had intensive care unit (ICU) admissions and those who had been managed on the ward, although patients requiring ICU admissions were more likely to have a significant cardiorespiratory cause found for their breathlessness, risk ratio 2.8 (95% CI 1.5 to 5.1).

    Abstract Background Nintedanib slows lung function decline for patients with non-idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis progressive pulmonary fibrosis (PPF) in clinical trials, but the real-world safety and efficacy are not known. Methods In this retrospective cohort study, standardised data were collected from patients in whom nintedanib was initiated for PPF between 2019 and 2020 through an early-access programme across eight centres in the United Kingdom. Rate of lung function change in the 12 months pre- and post-nintedanib initiation was the primary analysis. Symptoms, drug safety, tolerability and stratification by interstitial lung disease subtype and computed tomography pattern were secondary analyses. Results 126 patients were included; 67 (53%) females; mean±sd age 60±13 years. At initiation of nintedanib, mean forced vital capacity (FVC) was 1.87 L (58% predicted) and diffusing capacity of the lung for carbon monoxide (DLCO) was 32.7% predicted. 68% of patients were prescribed prednisolone (median dose 10 mg) and 69% were prescribed a steroid-sparing agent. In the 12 months after nintedanib initiation, lung function decline was significantly lower than in the preceding 12 months: FVC −88.8 mL versus −239.9 mL (p=0.004), and absolute decline in DLCO −2.1% versus −6.1% (p=0.004). Response to nintedanib was consistent in sensitivity and secondary analyses. 89 (71%) out of 126 patients reported side-effects, but 86 (80%) of the surviving 108 patients were still taking nintedanib at 12 months with patients reporting a reduced perception of symptom decline. There were no serious adverse events. Conclusion In PPF, the real-world efficacy of nintedanib replicated that of clinical trials, significantly attenuating lung function decline. Despite the severity of disease, nintedanib was safe and well tolerated in this real-world multicentre study.

    Abstract Diffusion properties of white matter tracts have been associated with individual differences in reading. Individuals born preterm are at risk of injury to white matter. In this study we compared the associations between diffusion properties of white matter and reading skills in children and adolescents born full term and preterm. 45 participants, aged 9-17 years, included 26 preterms (born < 36 weeks' gestation) and 19 full-terms. Tract fractional anisotropy (FA) profiles were generated for five bilateral white matter tracts previously associated with reading: anterior superior longitudinal fasciculus (aSLF), arcuate fasciculus (Arc), corticospinal tract (CST), uncinate fasciculus (UF) and inferior longitudinal fasciculus (ILF). Mean scores on reading for the two groups were in the normal range and were not statistically different. In both groups, FA was associated with measures of single word reading and comprehension in the aSLF, AF, CST, and UF. However, correlations were negative in the full term group and positive in the preterm group. These results demonstrate variations in the neurobiology of reading in children born full term and preterm despite comparable reading skills. Findings suggest that efficient information exchange required for strong reading abilities may be accomplished via a different balance of neurobiological mechanisms in different groups of readers.
