Extract
We commend Hambly et al. [1] for their important article describing the prevalence and characteristics of progressive fibrosing interstitial lung disease (PF-ILD) in a Canadian prospective registry for pulmonary fibrosis (CARE-PF).
Abstract
It is important to standardise diagnostic protocols and data collection processes across centres participating in registries, to avoid or reduce the risk of diagnostic misclassification bias and other related types of biases in registry-based studies http://bit.ly/3D7lvIA
