Quantification of Phenotypic Variability of Lung Disease in Children with Cystic Fibrosis.

Abstract excerpt

Cystic fibrosis (CF) lung disease has the greatest impact on the morbidity and mortality of patients suffering from this autosomal-recessive multiorgan disorder. Although CF is a monogenic disorder, considerable phenotypic variability of lung disease is observed in patients with CF, even in those carrying the same mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene or CFTR mutations...
