Impact of concomitant idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis on prognosis in lung cancer patients: A meta-analysis.

<h4>Background</h4>Current studies showed that idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) may lead to a poor prognosis of lung cancer. We conducted a meta-analysis to explore the impact of concomitant IPF in lung cancer and its prognostic value.<h4>Methods</h4>We searched the databa...
