Article Synopsis
- Forced vital capacity (FVC) and six-minute walk distance (6MWD) are important markers used to evaluate the severity and prognosis of interstitial lung diseases (ILD).
- The study compared exercise capacity, specifically 6MWT parameters, between patients with usual interstitial pneumonia (UIP) and non-UIP ILD while controlling for FVC levels.
- Results indicated that there were no significant differences in exercise capacity between the two groups when lung function was similar, suggesting that HRCT pattern may not independently affect exercise performance in ILD.
