This study identifies distinct pneumonia endotypes based on pathogen-specific host responses in the lung, linking them to clinical outcomes and suggesting personalized treatment strategies.

The paper identifies profibrotic monocyte-derived alveolar macrophages as a biomarker and therapeutic target in SSc-ILD by analyzing BAL fluid and lung explants.

This paper introduces a novel hierarchical density clustering algorithm, HAL-x, which efficiently generates multiple cluster labels for single-cell data and achieves high accuracy in classifying clinical statuses.
