Abstract

Biological markers, i.e., biomarkers, in lung tissue may make it possible to connect cell biological phenomena to the pathogenetic mechanisms in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). This review focuses on the lung tissue biomarkers, which have been compared with relevant clinical endpoints or with the most common differential diagnostic lung diseases. In addition, studies conducted on lung tissue samples and investigated by transcriptomic or proteomic methodologies have been included. Several studies have observed changes in alveolar epithelium and extracellular matrix supporting the current hypotheses of the pathogenesis of IPF. In many studies, however, alterations in inflammatory cells have been revealed, a phenomenon not currently incorporated into pathogenetic theories. Combining lung tissue material with other non-solid organs with clinically meaningful endpoints may prove to be the most beneficial approach in the search for non-invasive biomarkers.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 3. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 24 March 2015.
All research outputs
#12,858,409
of 22,794,367 outputs
Outputs from Fibrogenesis & Tissue Repair
#52
of 83 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#115,419
of 256,366 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Fibrogenesis & Tissue Repair
#2
of 2 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,794,367 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 43rd percentile – i.e., 43% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 83 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 4.4. This one is in the 37th percentile – i.e., 37% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 256,366 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 54% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 2 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one.
