2025-07-13
Abstract excerpt
Cystic Fibrosis (CF) is an autosomal recessive genetic disorder caused by mutations in the CFTR gene. The F508del mutation in exon 11 of the CFTR gene is prevalent worldwide, affecting approximately 70% of CF patients, but it is less common in the local Pakistani population.
