Summary

This is a longitudinal observational cohort study of patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) conducted within the Assiut University IPF Research Program between 2022 and 2026. The study aims to characterize the natural history, temporal disease dynamics, event patterns, and clinical outcomes of IPF over a two-year follow-up period.

Primary analyses focus on disease progression, acute exacerbation, hospitalization, mortality, and final clinical state. Secondary analyses include prespecified evaluation of the Inflammatory Burnout Index (IBI; Zenodo DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.18843181) and the Severity-Phenotype-Dynamics integration framework (SPD; Zenodo DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.18843362) as observational analytical frameworks for disease activity and multidimensional disease characterization. These frameworks are applied for research stratification only and do not influence treatment allocation, clinical management, or follow-up decisions.
