Deep learning-based algorithm for classifying high-resolution computed tomography features in coal workers' pneumoconiosis.

Biomed Eng Online

January 2025

Department of Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine, National Health Commission Key Laboratory of Pneumoconiosis, Shanxi Key Laboratory of Respiratory Diseases, First Hospital of Shanxi Medical University, No. 85 Jiefang South Road, Taiyuan, 030001, Shanxi, People's Republic of China.

Background: Coal workers' pneumoconiosis is a chronic occupational lung disease with considerable pulmonary complications, including irreversible lung diseases that are too complex to accurately identify via chest X-rays. The classification of clinical imaging features from high-resolution computed tomography might become a powerful clinical tool for diagnosing pneumoconiosis in the future.

Methods: All chest high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) medical images presented in this work were obtained from 217 coal workers' pneumoconiosis (CWP) patients and dust-exposed workers.

Pulmonary fibrosis as the sole manifestation of anti-Ku antibody positivity in the absence of myositis: A case report.

Respir Med Case Rep

January 2025

Department of Rheumatology of Lucania - UOSD of Rheumatology, "Madonna delle Grazie" Hospital, Matera, Italy.

Background: Anti-Ku antibodies are autoantibodies directed against the Ku protein complex involved in DNA repair. They are typically associated with overlap syndromes featuring polymyositis and systemic sclerosis. Isolated pulmonary involvement without myositis is exceedingly rare.

Diffuse alveolar hemorrhage (DAH) is a potentially life-threatening condition which can present with hemoptysis, diffuse alveolar infiltrates, anemia, and hypoxic respiratory failure. Antisynthetase syndrome (AS) is a rare autoimmune disorder most often characterized by nonerosive arthritis, proximal muscle weakness with elevated muscle enzymes, Raynaud's phenomenon, hyperkeratosis of the digits (mechanic's hands), and interstitial lung disease. According to large population studies, AS has an annual incidence of 0.

We aimed to describe the cardiopulmonary function during exercise and the health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in patients with a history of COVID-19 pneumonia, stratified by chest computed tomography (CT) findings at baseline. Among 77 consecutive patients with COVID-19 who were discharged from the Pulmonology Ward between March 2020 and April 2021, 28 (mean age 54.3 ± 8.
