ANALYSIS OF CFTR GENE MUTATIONS IN CHILDREN WITH CYSTIC FIBROSIS AND THEIR CLINICAL CORRELATION WITH ENDOCRINE PATHOLOGY
Keywords:
CFTR gene, Cystic fibrosis, Fibrosis cysticaAbstract
Cystic fibrosis is a genetic disorder caused by mutations in the CFTR gene. This autosomal recessive disorder is diagnosed in many regions by newborn screening, while in other regions, diagnosis is based on a cluster of recognized multiorgan clinical manifestations, elevated sweat chloride concentrations, or CFTR mutations. Cystic fibrosis is often associated with a shortened life expectancy, and the most common cause of death is endstage lung disease
