The majority of patients with cystic fibrosis (CF) will grow into adulthood. Despite this improvement in survival, the disease is progressive, especially with respect to the decline in pulmonary function, which in turn may have an impact on a patient's quality of life. In this study we evaluated the

Our objective was to determine the in vitro activity of minocycline against isolates of Burkholderia cepacia (BC), Stenotrophomonas maltophilia (SM), and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PA) cultured from the respiratory tract of patients with cystic fibrosis (CF). Cultures of BC, SM, and PA were isolated in
Nitric oxide (NO) is produced by various cell types in the human respiratory tract. Endogenously produced nitric oxide is detectable in the exhaled air of healthy individuals. Exhaled NO has been shown to be increased in airway inflammation, most probably due to cytokine-mediated activation of NO sy
The suggested incidence of cystic fibrosis (CF) in Asian migrants (Indians and Pakistanis) in the United Kingdom is about 1 in 10,000 to 12,000 [Goodchild et al., 1974]. There are no large studies on CF in Asian Indians. The disorder is thought to be rare and most studies from the Asian subcontinent
