However, when smokers do develop hypersensitivity pneumonitis, it is more commonly fibrosing disease with a worse prognosis 10. [radiopaedia.org]
Prognosis CNPA has a significant mortality of up to 40%, even if promptly recognised and treated. It is easy to miss and, in such cases, carries a worse prognosis. [patient.info]
Centrilobular accentuation of peribronchiolar fibrosis is very suggestive of hypersensitivity pneumonitis Surrounds and may occlude bronchiole Fibrosis may bridge from centrilobular to peripheral zones Fibrosis is generally not reversible and imparts a poor prognosis [surgpathcriteria.stanford.edu]
[…] in response to inhalation of organic antigens • Higher prevalence in farmers, animal breeders, and agricultural industries • Mainly affect Adults (50 – 60 years) • 95% of HP cases occur in nonsmokers – Smoking is related to lower prevalence but worse prognosis [slideshare.net]
Etiology
Clues to these other etiologies are often apparent in the history. [clinicaladvisor.com]
Specific etiology Drug induced: nitrofurantoin Parasite: strongyloides, pulm. larva nigrans, tropical pulm. eosinophilia, histosomiases Fungus: hypersensitivity bronchopulm. aspergillosis, bronchocentric granulomatosis C. [enotes.tripod.com]
However, sarcoidosis does not have such well defined etiology as extrinsic allergic alveolitis. [journalpulmonology.org]
From these observations, it seems reasonable to consider that Wegeners granulomatosis begins as a progressive granulomatous inflammation of unknown etiology at one or more levels in the respiratory tract. [dokumen.tips]
