Initial therapeutic dose of corticosteroid for an acute exacerbation of IPF is associated with subsequent early recurrence of another exacerbation

Abstract Some patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) undergo recurrent acute exacerbations (AEs). This study aimed to elucidate the risk factors for recurrent AEs of IPF (AE-IPF). Consecutive patients with IPF admitted for their first AE-IPF between January 2008 and December 2018 were ret...
