Brief summary (registry, in English)

Interstitial lung diseases (ILD) constitute a group of entities characterized by inflammation and/or fibrosis of the lung parenchyma. In recent years, with the advent of new diagnostic tools and therapeutic options, multidisciplinary evaluation is essential, since it optimizes the interpretation of each case and the quality of care for these pathologies Consensus for the identification and management of ILD associated with SSc (ILD-SSc) is the only guideline published at present. In the others autoimmune ILD (Ai-ILD), screening, diagnosis, treatment and follow-up strategies are usually performed according to the criteria of the treating medical team. Guidelines regarding the follow-up and indication of immunosuppressive and antifibrotic treatment are lacking. Many questions on the horizon of the Ai-ILD should be answered as better quality evidence emerges from studies with a greater number of patients and better methodological design.
