Treatable traits in interstitial lung disease: a narrative review

This is the authors' abstract. We don't add key points for this paper.

The interstitial lung diseases (ILDs) are a heterogeneous and complex group of diseases. The treatable trait (TT) model represents a shift in ILD management, away from traditional diagnostic labels towards a more individualised, trait-focused approach. This review explores the application of the TT paradigm to ILD, identifying key traits across the aetiological, pulmonary, extrapulmonary and behavioural domains. By addressing these traits, the TT model offers a framework to improve outcomes in ILD through multidisciplinary management with a precision medicine focus. Further research is necessary to evaluate the overall impact of this TT model on ILD care.
