Abstract
Clubbing was present in 7-42% of our fibrotic ILD cohort and showed no correlation with disease severity. Although considered an important clinical feature, assessment methods for clubbing showed no to poor agreement. Further studies are therefore needed to gain more insight into measuring clubbing reliably and the possible prognostic value and evolution of clubbing.
