Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This study evaluates serum level of Vitamin D in Interstitial Lung Diseases in patients with Interstitial Lung Diseases other than connective tissue diseases associated-Interstitial Lung Diseases and effects of its supplementation.

All patients will receive the standard regimen of treatment (corticosteroids and immunosuppressive drugs)and will be randomly assigned to either Group 1:who will receive Vitamin D supplementation (Interventional group)or Group 2:who will not receive Vitamin D supplementation(Control group).

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Pulmonary fibrosis was due to chronic inflammation and disordered wound healing in response to damage induced by a variety of agents such as viral infection and radiotherapy or environmental toxins.it is characterized by accumulation of myofibroblasts and excessive deposition of the extracellular matrix.Epithelial cells undergoes epithelial mesenchymal transition (EMT).

Supplementation with vitamin D or its analogs suppresses lung fibrosis via triggering anti-fibrotic effect through attenuation of transforming growth factor beta (TGF-B).vitamin D can reduce TGF-B expression and attenuate TGF-B induced epithelial mesenchymal transition in lung fibroblast and epithelial cells.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Interstitial lung patients with low vitamin D

Arm 1:(interventional group): interstitial lung diseases patients with low vitamine D will receive Vitamin D supplementation in form of Vitamin D3 (1.25(OH)2 cholecalciferol) in dose of 200.000 IU intramuscular injection every 2 weeks for 3 months for deficient vitamin D level patients and every month for 3 months for insufficient vitamin D level patients beside ca supplementation in form ca carbonate 600 mg oral capsule once daily for 3 months for all patients in addition to current treatment.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Vitamin D3 (1.25 (OH)2 cholecalciferol)

Intervention Type DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT

Vitamin D 3 in a dose of 200.000 IU intramuscular injection every 2 weeks for 3 months for Vitamin D deficient interstitial lung disease patients and every month for 3 months for vitamin D insufficient interstitial lung disease patients.
