Brief Summary

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

There are very few studies in the literature examining the frailty levels of diffuse parenchymal lung disease (DPLD) patients and its effect on their functional status despite the high prevalance of frailty in patients with DPLD This observational study aims to learn about the relationship between frailty and functional capacity and balance in DPLD patients compared to healthy subjects.

Detailed Description

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

The aim of the study is to evaluate the relationship between the level of frailty and exercise capacity, respiratory functions, diffusion capacity, balance level, postural changes, activities of daily living, peripheral muscle strength and quality of life parameters in DPLD patients. The second aim is to compare diffuse parenchymal lung patients and the healthy control group in terms of these parameters.
