Childhood interstitial lung disease survivors in adulthood: a European collaborative study.

Background: Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is rarer in children (chILD) than adults, but with increasing diagnostic awareness, more cases are being discovered. chILD prognosis is often poor, but increasing numbers are now surviving into adulthood.

Aim: To characterize chILD-survivors and identify their impact on adult-ILD centers.

Perspective matters in recovery: the views of persons with severe mental illness, family and mental health professionals on collaboration during recovery, a qualitative study.

Background: Recovery from severe mental illness, including psychosis has been described as a personal and unique process, but it rarely is a journey undertaken without profound influences of significant others (family, mental health professionals). Diverging perspectives between persons with severe mental illness, family and professionals are frequent during the recovery process, notably in psychotic disorders. We aimed to explore processes of collaboration during recovery, to inform recovery supporting practices.

Highly sensitive reporter cell line for detection of interferon types I-III and their neutralization by antibodies.

Interferons (IFNs) are a critical component of innate immune defenses and limit viral disease severity. To advance studies on IFNs and their neutralization by pathogenic autoantibodies, we generated a Renilla luciferase-based reporter cell line capable of detecting the activities of IFN-Is, IFN-II, and IFN-IIIs. The reporter cell line exhibits a 125- to 2000-fold higher sensitivity to IFNs than a commonly used alternative biological reporter system and allows for a rapid and simple live-cell workflow for detecting low titer amounts of neutralizing anti-IFN antibodies.
