G970R‐CFTR Mutation (c.2908G>C) Results Predominantly in a Splicing Defect
In previous work, participants with a G970R mutation in cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) (c.2908G>C) had numerically lower sweat chloride responses during ivacaftor treatment than participants with other CFTR gating mutations ...

ABSTRACT Background Elexacaftor/tezacaftor/ivacaftor (ETI) is a current standard therapy for pediatric cystic fibrosis (CF). Multiple‐breath washout 129Xe MRI (MBW Xe‐MRI) is improved following 1 month of treatment. However, the utility of MBW Xe‐MRI over extended ETI treatment and its comparison to single‐breath Xe‐MRI and pulmonary function tests ...

Clinical Use of Home Spirometry in Children With Cystic Fibrosis
ABSTRACT Background The use of home spirometry (HSPIR) has increased in pediatric cystic fibrosis (CF) care, but how it has been used clinically and its impact on clinical care have not been described. The purpose of this study was to address this knowledge gap through a secondary analysis of data from a HSPIR quality improvement project to ...
