Tests to Assess Sensitization to Aspergillus Fumigatus in Cystic Fibrosis
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the results of the tests used to identify the IgE mediated sensitization to Aspergillus fumigatus in patients with cystic fibrosis. METHODS This is a cross-sectional descriptive study with a convenience sample of 86 patients diagnosed with cystic fibrosis in the Reference Service in Cystic Fibrosis at a tertiary teaching hospital. The following tests were performed to as...
متن کاملThree-minute step test to assess exercise capacity in children with cystic fibrosis with mild lung disease.
The information obtained from a simple submaximal test (the 3-min step test) was compared with that from a maximal cycle ergometry study, in a group of children with CF with relatively mild abnormalities of lung function (FEV(1) > 50% predicted). Nineteen subjects with CF undertook both exercise tests on the same day. Measurements included heart rate (HR), oxygen saturations (SaO(2)), visual an...
متن کاملChronic infection and inflammation affect exercise capacity in cystic fibrosis.
Pulmonary function and nutritional status are important determinants of exercise capacity in patients with cystic fibrosis (CF). Studies investigating the effects of determinants, such as genotype or infection and inflammation, are scarce and have never been analysed in a multivariate longitudinal model. A prospective longitudinal cohort study was performed to evaluate whether genotype, chronic...

متن کاملPrevalence 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...
