Journal Article
Crooks, M. G., Fahim, A., Naseem, K. M., Morice, A. H., & Hart, S. P. (2014). Increased platelet reactivity in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis is mediated by a plasma factor. PLoS ONE, 9(10), Article ARTN e111347. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0111347

Introduction Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF) is a progressive, incurable fibrotic interstitial lung disease with a prognosis worse than many cancers. Its pathogenesis is poorly understood. Activated platelets can release pro-fibrotic mediators th... Read More about Increased platelet reactivity in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis is mediated by a plasma factor.

Journal Article
Fahim, A., Crooks, M. G., Morice, A. H., & Hart, S. P. (2014). Increased platelet binding to circulating monocytes in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. Lung, 192(2), 277-284. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00408-013-9546-5

Purpose Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is the most common idiopathic interstitial pneumonia and its prognosis is poor. Epidemiological evidence suggests an association of IPF with vascular disease and thrombotic tendency, which may be related to...
