No association was observed between IPF mortality and all other contaminants studiedFootnotesCite this article as: European Respiratory Journal 2021; 58: Suppl. 65, PA3761.This abstract was presented at the 2021 ERS International Congress, in session “Prediction of exacerbations in patients with COPD”.This is an ERS International Congress abstract.
