Deleterious impact of trivial to severe interstitial pneumonia and emphysema on mortality and acute exacerbation of interstitial pneumonia in patients with lung cancer: a retrospective cohort study.

Our results revealed that approximately one-third of patients with lung cancer had interstitial pneumonia when incorporating trivial and mild cases. Because interstitial pneumonia and emphysema, ranging from trivial to severe, significantly impact mortality and AEIP in patients with lung cancer, we should identify even trivial and mild cases of these pulmonary abnormalities among patients with lung cancer in addition to the advanced ones.
