Abstract
Growth failure and inadequate weight gain are common problems in childhood interstitial lung diseases (chILD) and these children usually need high calories. It is important to manage both pulmonary functions and nutrition as part of their overall treatment plan and early interventions will help children to improve their quality of life and slow the progression of chronic lung disease. Nutritional evaluation on routine clinical follow-up is important, although there are not any specific guidelines for chILD. Nutritional education, high balanced energy, protein, and fat diet will assist to improve weight gain and maintenance of adequate nutrition status in children with ILD.
期刊介绍:
The European Journal of Clinical Nutrition (EJCN) is an international, peer-reviewed journal covering all aspects of human and clinical nutrition.

Topics of interest include but are not limited to:
Nutrition and Health (including climate and ecological aspects)
Metabolism & Metabolomics
Genomics and personalized strategies in nutrition
Nutrition during the early life cycle
Health issues and nutrition in the elderly
Phenotyping in clinical nutrition
Nutrition in acute and chronic diseases
The double burden of ''malnutrition'': Under-nutrition and Obesity
Prevention of Non Communicable Diseases (NCD)
