AbstractO_ST_ABSRationaleC_ST_ABSIdiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is an age-related disorder with common and rare genetic risk factors. It is unknown if the effects of PF genetic risk factors differ by chronologic age. ObjectivesTo assess age-specific effects of genetic risk factors in PF patients and their relatives.
