Pulmonary hypertension in interstitial lung disease: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a key complication in interstitial lung disease (ILD), with recent therapeutic advances. ⋯ PH is a common complication in ILD with significant health impacts. A standardized definition with prospective evaluation of risk-stratified assessments for PH using identified associated risk factors is warranted. Our findings provide an evidence base for validation as surrogate end points in future PH interventional trials in ILD.
