PL-12 positive autoantibody
Commonly seen in patient with interstitial lung disease without evidence of myositis
Positive anti-Jo-1 antibody
Patient have concurrent ILD 90% of the time
Myositis-specific autoantibodies
Antisynthetase antibodies (30% of patients with PM and DM) Anti-Jo-1 and anti-PL12 antibodies may occur in patient with ILD but without overt myositis
Anti-Ku antibodies
Associated with overlap syndromes with myositis and scleroderma
Anti-MDA-5 autoantibodies
Associated with dermatomyositis without myositis but with progressive ILD
Anti-SRP antibodies
Associated with severe necrotizing myopathy
Lymphocytic interstitial pneumonia associated with
HIV
Sjogrens
Cystic and interstitial lung disease
SEATS upper lobe interstitial fibrosis

Monday fever
Byssinosis
Byssinosis
Pneumoconniosis from cloth (hemp, flax, cotton)
Berryliosis
Like sarcoidosis, chronic noncaseating granulomatous disease
Berrylium testing
Beryllium lymphocyte proliferation test (serum)
CD4:CD8 normal
2
CD4:CD8 low
Hypersensitivity pneumonitis
CD4:CD8 high
Sarcoidosis
Pulmonary alveolar microlithiasis (PAM) characteristic findings
Widespread intraalveolar accumulation of minute calcium phosphate deposits
Pulmonary alveolar microlithiasis (PAM) etiology
Mutation in SLC34A2 gene = dysfunctional type 2 alveolar cells
Telomere genes leading to IPF or familial pulmonary fibrosis
TERT, TERC
MUC5b
Increased risk for pulmonary fibrosis compared to telomere pathway but improved survival
