In this cohort, as compared with the AREST CF cohort, the authors highlight the limited correlation between infection and inflammation with lung function and structural impairment, and that this was mainly explained by the mild changes identified in lung function and on chest CT scan.
There is no consensus about which outcomes should be evaluated in studies of pulmonary exacerbations in people with cystic fibrosis (CF). Outcomes used for evaluation should be meaningful; that is, they should capture how people feel, function or survive and be acknowledged as important to people with CF, or should be reliable surrogates of those outcomes. We aimed to summarise the outcomes and corresponding endpoints which have been reported in studies of pulmonary exacerbations, and to identify those which are most likely to be meaningful.
Chest CT identifies children at an early age who have adverse long-term outcomes
Here we examine the latest findings of neutrophils in pediatric CF lung disease and proposed mechanisms of their pathogenicity
Aspergillus species and P. aeruginosa are commonly present in the lower airways from infancy
The aim of this study is to identify and quantify the preferences of patients with cystic fibrosis regarding treatment outcomes

The proposed study intends to explore parental experiences, including coping, related to their child's involvement in the early surveillance program.
This study aimed to investigate the information needs, priorities, and information-seeking behaviours of parents of infants newly diagnosed with CF.
