Diabetic Pneumopathy–A New Diabetes-Associated Complication: Mechanisms, Consequences and Treatment Considerations

Patients with diabetes are over-represented among the total cases reported with “idiopathic” pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). This raises the question, whether this is an association only or whether diabetes itself can cause pulmonary fibrosis. Recent studies in mouse models of type 1 and type 2 diabetes d...

description Patients with diabetes are over-represented among the total cases reported with “idiopathic” pulmonary fibrosis (IPF).
