Figure 4

Survival curves of patients with microscopic polyangiitis (MPA)-interstitial lung disease (ILD) based on their right or left lower lobe fibrosis score. (A) The 5-year survival rate was significantly lower in the patients with a right lower lobe fibrosis score ≥ 2 (37%) than in those with a score < 2 (71%) (P = 0.002). Solid line: < 2, dashed line: ≥ 2. (B) The 5-year survival rate was significantly lower in the patients with a left lower lobe fibrosis score ≥ 2 (19.3%) than in those with a score < 2 (68%) (P = 0.0007). Solid line: < 2, dashed line: ≥ 2. Survival rates were calculated by the Kaplan–Meier method and compared by log-rank test. *P < 0.05.
