Clinical Outcome of CF Patients with CF Related Diabetes: Do We Need to Change Our Policy?
Background: Many studies have shown that CFRD has a negative impact on CF prognosis. Current guidelines advise to screen for CFRD with an OGTT yearly from the age of 10 12. In our center we do not routinely screen for CFRD because the OGTT is cumbersome and not an ideal screening test. We therefore want to exclude unfavourable clinical evolution due to late diagnosis. Methods: 23 CF patients wi...

15 صفحه اولThe Role of Receptor for Advanced Glycation End Products in Airway Inflammation in CF and CF related Diabetes
Cystic Fibrosis (CF) is often accompanied by diabetes leading to worsening lung function, the reason for which is unclear. The receptor for advanced-glycation-end-products (RAGE) regulates immune responses and inflammation and has been linked to diabetes and possibly CF. We performed a pilot study to determine if CF and CF-related diabetes (CFRD) are associated with enhanced RAGE expression. Fu...
متن کاملAirways reactivity in patients with CF.
Airways reactivity, hyper-reactivity, and hyper-responsiveness are terms used to describe airways for which there appears to be increased bronchial smooth muscle tone or responsiveness. Some patients with cystic fibrosis (CF) have concomitant asthma causing airway hyperresponsiveness as manifested by recurrent acute symptoms of dyspnea that is impressively responsive to an inhaled beta 2 agonis...
متن کاملPseudomonas aeruginosa, cyanide accumulation and lung function in CF and non-CF bronchiectasis patients.
In patients with cystic fibrosis (CF) and non-CF bronchiectasis, Pseudomonas aeruginosa is the most important respiratory pathogen. It is able to synthesise hydrogen cyanide, a potent inhibitor of cellular respiration. The present study investigated whether cyanide is present in the sputum of CF and non-CF bronchiectasis patients infected with P. aeruginosa, and whether the detection of cyanide...
