Prevalence of Cystic Fibrosis Trans-membrane Conductance Regulator Gene common mutations in children with cystic fibrosis in Isfahan, Iran
Background: Cystic fibrosis (CF) is the most common lethal genetic disorder of Cystic Fibrosis Trans-membrane Conductance (CFTR) Regulator gene mutations. We aimed to investigate common mutations in CF patients and to assess its possible relationship with clinical presentations. Materials and Methods: This cross sectional study was conducted on 36 CF patients who were referred to a tertiary ped...
متن کامل[Pulmonary function in children and adolescents with cystic fibrosis].
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the association between nutritional status measurements and pulmonary function in children and adolescents with cystic fibrosis. METHODS We evaluated the nutritional status of 48 children and adolescents (aged 6-18 years) with cystic fibrosis based on body mass index (BMI) and body composition measurements-mid-arm muscle circumference (MAMC) and triceps skinfold thicknes...
متن کاملPulmonary oxidative stress response in young children with cystic fibrosis.
BACKGROUND It has been suggested that oxidative stress contributes to lung injury in cystic fibrosis. There is, however, no direct evidence of increased pulmonary oxidative stress in cystic fibrosis nor of the effects of inflammation on the major pulmonary antioxidant, glutathione. A study was undertaken to measure these parameters in infants and young children in the presence or absence of pul...
متن کاملPulmonary function tests in preschool children with cystic fibrosis.
Pulmonary function tests have rarely been assessed in preschool children with cystic fibrosis (CF). The objective of this multicenter study was to compare pulmonary function in 39 preschool children with CF (height, 90-130 cm; 16 homozygous Delta F508) and in 79 healthy control children. Functional residual capacity (helium dilution technique) and expiratory interrupter resistance (Rint(exp)) (...
متن کاملGlucose Tolerance during Pulmonary Exacerbations in Children with Cystic Fibrosis
BACKGROUND Patients with Cystic Fibrosis (CF) are relatively insulinopenic and are at risk of diabetes, especially during times of stress. There is a paucity of data in the literature describing glucose tolerance during CF pulmonary exacerbations. We hypothesised that glucose tolerance would be worse during pulmonary exacerbations in children with CF than during clinical stability. METHODS Pa...
