Abstract
Rationale Neutrophil counts in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis are associated with worse outcomes; however, the underlying mechanisms are unknown. Neutrophil extracellular trap formation is associated with worse outcomes in several chronic lung diseases however, there is an unknown role in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis.
