The prevalence of coronary artery disease in end-stage pulmonary disease: Is pulmonary fibrosis a risk factor
Respiratory Medicine, 08/18/09

Izbicki G et al. – There is significantly more CAD in lung–transplantation candidates with lung fibrosis as compared to those with emphysema, despite the fact that smoking was much more prevalent in the emphysema patients.
