Sample Question 1A 62-year-old man presents to your clinic for follow-up evaluation of shortness of breath and dry cough. His breathlessness on exertion started insidiously 6 months ago. Review of his evaluation reveals pulmonary function tests consistent with restriction and severely decreased diffusing capacity of the lung for carbon monoxide (DLCO). Highresolution computed tomography (HRCT) demonstrates bibasilar reticular abnormalities without ground-glass opacities or consolidation. A transbronchial lung biopsy was nondiagnostic. All serologies for connective tissue disease have been negative, and on repeat history today, the patient denies any past exposure to heavy metals, chemical toxins, molds, dusts, or asbestosis. On examination today, you note a resting O2 saturation of 88% on room air and bibasilar inspiratory crackles. There is no jugular venous distention, s3, or peripheral edema. Which of the following is the most likely diagnosis for this patient?

Sample Question 2A 68-year-old woman with known IPF presents to your offi ce for follow-up. She states that her lung breathing trouble seems to be about the same, but she has felt a little weaker lately. Today on examination, her O2 saturation is 93% on 2 L O2 by nasal cannula. Her lung examination again reveals coarse, Velcro-like inspiratory crackles at both bases. She does not have elevated jugular venous pressure or peripheral edema, but you do note clubbing. Her pulmonologist has recently been treating her lung disease with prednisone and azathioprine, but the patient is not sure if this is helping. You order an arterial blood gas, chest x-ray, pulmonary function testing, and a 6-minute walk test. Which of the following findings would be most predictive of further clinical deterioration of the patient's disease?
