Diabetic complications affect many organs in diabetic patients. Emerging evidence indicates that diabetes can increase the risk of pulmonary dysfunction. Early epidemiological studies from different populations on whether diabetes was an independent risk for pulmonary dysfunction were inconclusive. Recent epidemiological studies and systematic reviews clearly indicate that diabetes is an independent risk factor for pulmonary dysfunction. Given that pulmonary fibrosis is an important predictor of mortality in people with this chronic disease, whether diabetes directly causes pulmonary fibrosis is an important unresolved clinical question. This review combines recent epidemiological data with findings from basic research to indicate that diabetes induces pulmonary fibrosis. We then discuss the possible underlying mechanisms for the histological and biochemical pathology. At the end of this review, we emphasize that diabetic pulmonary fibrosis as a potential diabetic complication warrants more attention. Copyright (C) 2011 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
