Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUNDS: Genetic variants in CF transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene causes cystic fibrosis (CF), a prevalent autosomal recessive disorder. More than 2000 variants in CFTR have been described as disease causative. This study aims to delineate the genotypic and phenotypic landscape of CF among people with CF (pwCF) followed at the largest CF center in Turkey. METHODS: We conducted a descriptive and...
