CHAPTER10 Respiratorymedicine
Idiopathic pulmonary brosis (IPF) 6000 people are diagnosed
every year in the UK. > . Incidence i with age. ~85% diagnoses made in people >70y. Progressive condition of unknown cause with insidious onset. Can only be diagnosed if other causes of interstitial lung disease have been excluded and symptoms present >3mo.
Riskfactors
• Smoking
• Environmental exposure, e.g.
metals dusts, animal dusts
Presentation
• Progressive exertional dyspnoea
• Dry cough
• Clubbing (>50%)
• Fine ‘Velcro- like’ crepitations
Investigations
CXR Diuse shadowing (although may be normal)
Lung function tests Restrictive picture
Dierentialdiagnosis
• LVF
• COPD
• Other causes of lung brosis— dust exposure (coal, asbestos, silica,
farmer’s lung, bird fancier’s lung)
Management Refer to a respiratory physician for diagnosis and advice on management. Treatment, where appropriate, is with oral steroids + azathioprine. Pulmonary rehabilitation may be helpful. Lung transplant is a last option. Most patients have poor prognosis with median survival 3y. Asubgroup with brotic non- specic interstitial pneumonia (NSIP) has sub­stantially better prognosis with >50% surviving 5y.
0 Patients with IPF have a 10× i risk of lung cancer. This risk is multiplica­tive with that from smoking. Patients with IPF who smoke 20 cigarettes a day may have a 200× i risk of lung cancer compared with non- smokers without IPF.
• Chronic viral infection, e.g. EBV,
hepatitis C
• GORD
• Malaise
• Weight d
• Central cyanosis and right heart
failure (advanced cases)
• Inhalant exposure (O2, NO2)
• Radiation
Sarcoidosis Multisystem inammatory disease of unknown cause
characterized by non- caseating granuloma. Annual incidence in the UK is 7/ 100,000. Typically presents with lung granuloma in a young adult. ♀ > ♂.
Non- respiratory manifestations ofsarcoidosis
• Fever and malaise
• Erythema nodosum
• Lupus pernio (blue- red nodules
on the nose, face, and/ or hands)
• Scar inltration
• Enlarged lacrimal glands
• Hypopyon
• Uveitis
• Arthralgia
• Hepatosplenomegaly
• Arrhythmias
• Heart failure
• Pericardial eusion
• Cranial and/ or peripheral nerve
palsies
• Seizures
• Hypercalcaemia
• Renal stones
• Lymphadenopathy
https://t.me/med1917
INTERSTITIAL LUNGDISEASE
Acute sarcoidosis (Löfgren’s syndrome)
• Polyarthralgia
• Swinging fever
Insidious onset CXR shows hilar lymphadenopathy— incidental nding in 30– 50%. If symptomatic, usually presents with tiredness, malaise, weight d, and/ or arthralgia. 15% have lung symptoms with gradual onset of progres­sive exertional dyspnoea and dry cough.
Management Refer any patient with bilateral hilar lymphadenopathy for fur­ther investigation. For patients with conrmed sarcoidosis, specialist man­agement is needed. Steroids are the rst- line treatment, but should only be used if:
• Progressive disease (on imaging or lung function testing)
• Signicant symptoms
• Extra- pulmonary disease requiring treatment
Rarely, if steroids are not controlling disease progression or symptoms, methotrexate will be added. Inhaled steroids may be helpful to control cough, but do not inuence disease progression. For patients with severe symptoms, pulmonary rehabilitation may be helpful. Lung transplant may be considered for patients with end- stage pulmonary sarcoidosis.
Prognosis Variable natural history, so predicting the course of disease and prognosis is dicult. Spontaneous remission occurs in 55– 90% of patients with stage Iradiological disease, 40– 70% with stage II disease, and 10– 20% with stage III disease. Most remissions occur in the rst 6mo. Mortality ranges from 1– 5%, due to pulmonary, myocardial, or CNS involvement.
• Erythema nodosum
• Bilateral hilar lymphadenopathy on CXR

CHAPTER10 Respiratorymedicine
Occupational lungdisease
Exposure to gases, vapours, and dusts at work can lead to lung disease.
Coal- worker’s pneumoconiosis 90% of all compensated industrial
lung disease in the UK. ‘Pneumoconiosis’ means accumulation of dust in the lungs and tissue reaction to its presence. Incidence is related to total dust exposure. Divides into:
Simple pneumoconiosis Deposition of coal dust in the lung. Graded
on CXR appearance. Grading determines whether disability benet is payable in the UK. Eect on lung function is debated. Predisposes to progressive massive brosis
Progressive massive brosis Round brotic masses several cm diameter
form in the upper lobes. Presents with exertional dyspnoea, cough, black sputum, and eventually respiratory failure. Symptoms progress (or even start) after exposure to coal dust has ceased. Lung function tests show a mixed restrictive and obstructive picture with loss of lung volume, irreversible airow limitation, and d gas transfer
Asbestosis Before legislation banning its use, exposure was widespread
and occurred particularly in naval shipyards and power stations. Eects of asbestos exposure— Table 10.14. Consider diagnosis in relatives who came into contact with asbestos while washing clothes etc. too— they can claim compensation if aected.
Silicosis Uncommon. Aects stonemasons, pottery workers, workers
exposed to sand- blasting, and fettlers (remove sand from metal casts). Caused by inhalation of silica. CXR appearance is distinctive. Presents with exertional dyspnoea ± cough.
Lung function tests as for progressive massive brosis. Associated with i risk of lung cancer and TB.
Byssinosis Aects cotton mill workers. Symptoms (tightness in the chest,
cough, and breathlessness) start on the 1st day back at work after a break (Monday sickness) with improvement as the week progresses. CXR is normal.
Berylliosis Rare. Long latent period. Aects workers in the aerospace,
nuclear power, and electrical industries and their close relatives. Presents similarly to sarcoidosis (E p. 304).
Iron (siderosis), barium (baritosis) and tin (stannosis) dust inhalation Result in dramatic dense nodular shadowing on the CXR, but
eects on lung function and symptoms are often minimal.
Occupational asthma >200 industrial materials cause occupational
asthma. Accounts for 17% of all adult asthma cases. Important causes are recognized occupational diseases in the UK— patients may be eligible for statutory compensation if they apply <10y after leaving the occupation in which asthma developed. Suspect if a patient has symptoms which improve on days away from work/ holiday.
Hypersensitivity pneumonitis (‘farmer’s lung’) E p. 302
Management In all cases refer to a respiratory physician for con-
rmation of diagnosis (essential if seeking compensation) and advice on management.

OCCUPATIONAL LUNGDISEASE
Table10.14 Conditions caused byasbestos exposure
Condition Asbestos exposure Features/ management
Benign pleural eusion
Bilateral diuse pleural thickening*
Asbestosis* Follows heavy
Mesothelioma* Can follow even
Asbestosis­related lung cancer*
* Eligible for industrial injuries benet in the UK.
Usually occurs <20y after exposure
Follows light or moderate exposure to asbestos.
May progress even in the absence of further exposure
exposure after a 5– 10y interval
light exposure to asbestos.
20– 40y time lag between exposure and appearance of disease
Patients exposed to asbestos who have evidence of that exposure (pleural plaques, bilateral pleural thickening, or asbestosis) have an i risk of bronchial carcinoma— usuall y adenocarcinoma. Smokers exposed to asbestos have a 5× i risk compared to non- smokers exposed to asbestos
Manage as for lung cancer— E p. 290
Increasing dyspnoea ± pleuritic pain Refer for drainage of eusion. May be recurrent and require pleurodesis
Dened as pleural thickening >5mm thick covering >¼ of the chest wall
Symptoms: exertional dyspnoea Lung function tests: restrictive picture Treatment is symptomatic
Presents with progressive dyspnoea, nger clubbing, and basal end- expiratory crackles

CHAPTER10 Respiratorymedicine
Snoring and obstructive sleepapnoea
Snoring During sleep, the pharyngeal airway narrows due to d dilator
muscle tone. Snoring is vibratory noise generated from the pharynx and soft palate as the air passes through this narrowed space. Further narrowing produces louder snoring, laboured inspiration, and eventually apnoeic epi­sodes. Social consequences are the usual reason for the patient to seek help. They can be distressing:banishment from the bedroom, marital dis­harmony, no holidays, fear of travelling or falling asleep in a public place, etc.
0 Snoring may be used by the spouse as an excuse to leave the marital bed and may actually be trivial/ absent. If suspected, ask the patient to bring a recording of the oending noise.
Obstructive sleep apnoea Occurs when the pharyngeal airway com-
pletely closes during sleep resulting in apnoeic episodes. i inspiratory eort is sensed by the brain and a transient arousal provoked. Afew of these arousals do not matter, but many (sometimes hundreds) per night l frag­mented sleep and consequent daytime sleepiness. Aects 4% and 2% in the UK.
Clinicalfeatures
Dominant features Excessive daytime sleepiness (not tiredness—
Epworth Sleepiness Scale is a useful assessment tool), impaired concentration, snoring
Other features Unrefreshing sleep, choking episodes during sleep,
witnessed apnoeic episodes, restless sleep, irritability/ personality change, nocturia, d libido
Causes ofsnoring and sleep apnoea Overweight (neck circumfer-
ence >43cm), nasal congestion, evening alcohol/ sedatives, large tonsils, re­ceding lower jaw, smoking, hypothyroidism, menopause.
Management
Snoring withoutsleepapnoea
Initial approaches Suggest changing sleeping position (discourage from
sleeping on back); elevate head of the bed (e.g. prop up on bricks— can d nasal congestion); limit number of pillows to 1 thick/ 2 thin pillows to maximize pharyngeal size; d weight if obese; d or stop evening alcohol/ sleeping tablets; suggest partner tries ear plugs (purchase from chemist— takes several nights to get used to wearing them)
If clinically indicated
• Nasal congestion— start beclometasone nasal spray (applied head downwards) 2 pus bd ± ipratropium bromide nasal spray 2 pus nocte
• Check TFTs to exclude hypothyroidism
If simple measures fail Refer to:
• Dentist or ENT for a mandibular advancement device
• ENT for surgery— septal straightening, polypectomy, turbinate reduction, tonsillectomy or uvulopalatopharyngoplasty
Sleepapnoea
• Advise patients to:d weight if obese; d or stop evening alcohol/
sleeping tablets and

SNORING AND OBSTRUCTIVE SLEEPAPNOEA
• Refer to a sleep unit or physician with a special interest in sleep
problems. If diagnosis is proven and causing signicant daytime sleepiness, usual treatment is with CPAP therapy at night. Mandibular advancement devices are alternatives for patients who cannot tolerate CPAP or have very mild symptoms with no daytime sleepiness. Occasionally, if large tonsils, referral to ENT for surgery is warranted
• Complications:i BP, DM, i risk of stroke and road trac accidents
The Epworth Sleepiness Scale How likely are you to doze o or fall
asleep in the following situations, in contrast to feeling just tired?
This refers to your usual way of life in recent times. Even if you have not done some of these things recently, try to work out how they would have aected you.
Situation Chance of dozing Sitting and reading
Watching TV
Sitting inactive in a public place (e.g. a theatre or a meeting) As a passenger in a car for an hour without a break
Lying down to rest in the afternoon when circumstances permit Sitting and talking to someone
Sitting quietly after a lunch without alcohol
In a car, while stopped for a few minutes in trac
0=no chance of dozing 1=slight chance of dozing
If score >10— consider sleep apnoea.

Driving Warn patients NOT to drive if sleepy. Once diagnosis is con- rmed, must inform DVLA and insurance company (E p. 98).
Sleep apnoea inchildren Common in children aged 2– 7y
in association with tonsil enlargement during URTI. Sleep dis­ruption can cause daytime sleepiness, hyperactivity, poor atten­tion span and bad behaviour.
If tonsils are big enough to produce sleep apnoea in the ab­sence of current infection, refer to ENT for consideration of tonsillectomy.

CHAPTER11 Endocrinology
Symptoms ofendocrinedisease
Hormones secreted by the endocrine system perform a wide range of functions. Therefore, clinical presentation of dierent endocrine disorders varies widely from non- specic symptoms such as tiredness, to very specic signs such as delayed puberty. Specic features depend on the gland and hormones involved.
Polydipsia Over- frequent drinking of uid— often associated for logical
reasons with polyuria. Ask if associated with thirst. Take a history of uid intake. If no history of excess uid intake and capillary blood glucose/ fasting blood glucose/ HbA1c is normal, investigate further with U&E, Cr, eGFR, and Ca2+.
Commoncauses
• Change in lifestyle:diet/ activity/ exercise level— may be associated with
polyuria but no other symptoms. No history of thirst
• DM— usually accompanied by a history of thirst Other causes Diarrhoea, diabetes insipidus (E p. 341), i Ca2+ (E p. 336),
compulsive water drinking (may be a feature of psychotic illness), phos­phorus poisoning.
Polyuria Passage of excessive urine. Check the patient does not mean
frequency of urination. It can be dicult to distinguish the two. Causes are similar to those of polydipsia and the 2 symptoms are related. Take a his­tory of uid intake. If no history of excess uid intake and capillary blood glucose/ fasting blood glucose/ HbA1c is normal, investigate further with MSU (for M,C&S), U&E, Cr, eGFR, and Ca2+.
Consider
• DM
• Diabetes insipidus
• Hypercalcaemia
• Excessive intake— due to change in lifestyle or psychiatric conditions,
e.g. schizophrenia
• Chronic renal failure
• Drugs— diuretics, caeine, alcohol
Glycosuria Often detected incidentally on urine dipstick. Causes:
• DM
• Pregnancy
In all cases check HbA1c/ fasting blood glucose (+ glucose tolerance test if pregnant). Check immediate capillary blood glucose if other symptoms suggestive of DM.
Hirsutism Aects 10% of . Excess hair in androgenic distribution.
Causes:
• Most cases are idiopathic; there may be a family history
• Drugs— phenytoin; corticosteroids; ciclosporin; androgenic oral
contraception; anabolic steroids; minoxidil; diazoxide
• Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS)
• Late- onset congenital adrenal hyperplasia (rare)
• Sepsis
• Renal tubular damage
• Low renal threshold
• Cushing’s syndrome
• Ovarian tumours (rare)
https://t.me/med1917
SYMPTOMS OFENDOCRINEDISEASE
Assessment
History Long- standing or recent onset, family history, ethnic origin
(more common if of Mediterranean origin), menstrual history
Examination Distribution of excess hair
Investigation Women with longstanding hirsutism (since puberty) and regular periods need no further investigation, unless abnormal signs. Otherwise: blood— testosterone (i in PCOS, androgen- secreting tu- mour, late- onset congenital adrenal hyperplasia); LH/ FSH ratio (>3:1 suggests PCOS).
Refer to gynaecologist or endocrinologist if Recent onset, abnormal blood tests, virilism, galactorrhoea, menstrual disturbance, infertility, and/ or pelvic mass.
Treatment ofidiopathichirsutism
• Cosmetic— bleaching, shaving, waxing, depilatory creams, electrolysis
• Weight d in obese individuals
• Psychological support
• Topical eornithine d growth of unwanted facial hair. Continuous use
for >8wk is required before benet is seen. Must be used indenitely to prevent regrowth. Discontinue if no improvement in 4mo
• Oral medication— all must be taken for ≥6mo to take eect and none
abolish the problem. In all cases continue treatment until acceptable level of hair growth then stop. Relapse usually follows withdrawal and repeat courses are then required. Drugs used:COC pill containing desogestrel or co- cyprindiol; spironolactone
Sweating E p. 575 Facial ushing E p. 568 Delayed or precocious puberty E p. 871 Obesity E p. 152
Metabolic syndrome (syndrome X; insulin resistance syn­drome) Impaired glucose tolerance or DM, insulin resistance (in patients
on insulin, suggested by insulin doses >1 unit/ kg/ d) + other risk factors for CVD including:
• Truncal obesity— waist circumference >0.9m (); >1.0m ()—
subtract 0.1m from these gures for people of South Asian extraction
i BP >135/ 80mmHg
• Dyslipidaemia— serum HDL <1.2.mmol/ L () or <1.0 (); fasting
