Cystic fibrosis (CF) is an autosomal recessive disease characterized by obstruction and chronic infections of the respiratory tract and pancreatic insufficiency. The gene was cloned in 1989 and the most frequent mutation was shown to be the delta F508 mutation. During PGD, embryos obtained in vitro
We set out to determine the effects of various estimates of arterial PCO2 (PaCO2) on calculation of cardiac output (Q) by the indirect Fick (CO2) method in healthy children and children with cystic fibrosis (CF), and to develop a prediction equation for children for PaCO2, based on end-tidal PCO2 (P
The detection of unknown mutations remains a serious challenge and, despite the expected benefits for the patient's health, a large number of genes are not screened on a routine basis. We present the diagnostic application of EMMA (Enhanced Mismatch Mutation Analysis(ยฎ) , Fluigent, Paris, France), a
