Beyond the Lung. Impact of Elexacaftor/Tezacaftor/Ivacaftor on Sinonasal Disease in Children With Cystic Fibrosis. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Background Elexacaftor/tezacaftor/ivacaftor (ETI) is a Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Conductance Regulator (CFTR) therapy that improves pulmonary function and chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) in cystic fibrosis (CF) adults with at least one copy of the F508del CFTR mutation.

The Value of Enhancing Sonographic Phenotyping to Improve the Diagnostic Yield of Noninvasive Prenatal Diagnosis (NIPD) for Achondroplasia. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Objectives Achondroplasia is the most common form of skeletal dysplasia and is usually suspected in the third trimester of pregnancy based on abnormal sonographic findings. Non‐invasive prenatal diagnosis (NIPD), based on the detection of pathogenic FGFR3 variants in maternal plasma, provides an accurate genetic confirmation.

Rationally Designed InhA Inhibitors: A Comparative Anti-Tubercular Activity Study of Sulfonate Esters of Isoniazid Hydrazones and Their Structurally Flexible Benzyl Analogues. [PDF]
A comparative anti‐tubercular evaluation of sulfonate esters of isoniazid hydrazones and their structurally flexible benzyl analogues disclosed several potent compounds against Mycobacterium tuberculosis with the representative compound displaying an MIC of 0.078 μg/mL.

Rational Design and Antimycobacterial Evaluation of Aryl Sulfonamide-Linked Isoniazid Hydrazones Against Mycobacterium Tuberculosis. [PDF]
Molecular docking shows that ligands 8 (a–i) adopt a U‐shaped geometry in the InhA active site, enabling stronger interactions than 7 (j–r). Surprisingly, both sets display similar potency, indicating that factors like electronic effects or solvation also influence anti‐TB activity.

La mucoviscidose est, aujourd’hui, une maladie devenue chronique chez l’adulte. Les progrès dans la connaissance de la physiopathologie de cette maladie, de sa prise en charge, de l’organisation des soins, du diagnostic, et de la thérapeutie, sont à mettre au crédit de la découverte en 1989 du gène responsable de cette maladie, le gène CFTR (cystic ...

Airway Mycobiota-Microbiota During Pulmonary Exacerbation of Cystic Fibrosis Patients: A Culture and Targeted Sequencing Study. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Background The airways of patients with cystic fibrosis (pwCF) harbour complex fungal and bacterial microbiota involved in pulmonary exacerbations (PEx) and requiring antimicrobial treatment. Descriptive studies analysing bacterial and fungal microbiota concomitantly are scarce, especially using both culture and high‐throughput‐sequencing (HTS)

The validated French CFAbd-Score reveals a lower burden of gastrointestinal symptoms in patients on Elexacaftor/Tezacaftor/Ivacaftor. [PDF]
Abstract Objectives Multiorgan abdominal involvement is a hallmark of Cystic fibrosis (CF). The CFAbd‐Score© is the first CF‐specific gastrointestinal patient reported outcome‐measure (PROM) developed following FDA‐guidelines. The PROM has proved to sensitively differentiate people with CF (pwCF) from healthy controls (HC).
