Abstract
These findings emphasize the need of careful diagnosis and treatment of comorbidities and their risk factors in patients with IPF. In the absence of efficient treatment options for the majority of patients diagnosed with IPF, this may play a role in the effort to optimize the survival of IPF patients. Further studies are needed to fully clarify the impact of comorbidities on prognosis in patients diagnosed with IPF.
