Presentation
Neonatal respiratory distress is a common presenting symptom, although childhood interstitial lung disease and pulmonary fibrosis can also be presenting diagnoses.. [hopkinsmedicine.org]
Six were symptomatic at birth with 10 of the 11 presenting at or before 3 months of age. The most common presenting sign was tachypnoea associated with rib indrawing, occurring in nine cases. [adc.bmj.com]
In the present report, we reviewed our experience with 10 infants during a 10-year period. In 9 patients, onset of symptoms occurred before the age of 2 months and included tachypnea, cough, and inadequate weight gain. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Conditions that improve with immune suppressive treatment probably are not idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. The toxicity and side effects of treatments can be serious. [medicinenet.com]
Prognosis
The literature on the prevalence, predisposing factors, diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis of the infection is reviewed. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
The prognosis in infancy is thought to be poor 2-4 ; a recent case series 2 recorded nine deaths out of ten patients. The authors suggested that a delay in diagnosis might have contributed to the poor prognosis. [adc.bmj.com]
Prognosis. In the case of pneumonitis with a good response to treatment, the prognosis is favorable. The prognosis for fibrosis is variable. [archbronconeumol.org]
Natural histories differ depending upon the genes involved and a specific diagnosis is important to provide accurate information concerning prognosis and mode of inheritance. [jhu.pure.elsevier.com]
The prognosis of pulmonary fibrosis also depends on the particular cause. [verywell.com]

Etiology of intertrigo Intertrigo develops from mechanical factors and secondary infection. Heat and maceration are central to the process. Opposing skin surfaces rub against each other, at times causing erosions that become inflamed. [emedicine.medscape.com]
Myofibroblasts are considered to be an important determinant in the etiology of fibrosis and inhibiting myofibroblast differentiation has become an important target for therapy. [albany.edu]

Abstract Background In geriatric and long-term care settings, intertrigo seems to be common, but generalizable epidemiological estimates are lacking. [bmcgeriatr.biomedcentral.com]
Epidemiology Epidemiological data on DILD are sparse. The incidence and prevalence reported in the literature are highly variable because the epidemiological methods used differ from one study to another. [archbronconeumol.org]
Epidemiology ILD is rare in children. Cases tend to cluster in infancy, and 10-16% appear to be familial. [slideshare.net]

Pathophysiology [ edit ] In disorders that are intrinsic to the lung parenchyma, the underlying process is usually pulmonary fibrosis (scarring of the lung). [5] As the disease progresses, the normal lung tissue is gradually replaced by scar tissue interspersed [en.wikipedia.org]

Pathophysiology Environmental factors and genetic causes play a leading role in the development of intertrigo. One of these factors is the friction caused by adjacent skin surfaces causing inflammation of the epidermis. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Prevention
You may need to check into the hospital to get some rest, have more tests, and prevent complications. Blood thinners (antiplatelet drugs) are used to treat and prevent unstable angina. [medlineplus.gov]
Additionally, preventative measures to reduce skin-on-skin friction and moisture can help in the management of current intertrigo and prevent future episodes. [emedicine.medscape.com]
Prevention Prevention is key. Once intertrigo sets in, it can be difficult to cure unless the root causes (such as obesity) are addressed. [verywellhealth.com]

Is it possible to prevent intertrigo? It's possible to prevent simple intertrigo by liberally applying a lubricating ointment like petrolatum directly into the intertriginous skin fold predisposed to irritation prior to any physical activity. [rxlist.com]
