Background: Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a common autosomal recessive disorder that affects many body systems and is produced by mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene. CF is also the most frequently inherited disorder in the West. The aim of this study was to detect the mutations in the CFTR gene in two Iranian families with CF. Methods: After DNA extractio...

The publisher regrets that in the published version of the above article there is a mismatch between the symbols described in the text and the symbols in Fig. 9B and Fig. 9D. The filled circles in the figures represent the adapted case (5 second time window) and the open circles represent the unadapted case (2 second time window). This is correctly labelled in the figure legend of Fig. 9 but is...

Background: The equations predicting maximal oxygen uptake (VO2max or peak) presently in use in cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) softwares in Brazil have not been adequately validated. These equations are very important for the diagnostic capacity of this method. Objective: Build and validate a Brazilian Equation (BE) for prediction of VO2peak in comparison to the equation cited by Jones...
