“…Living with CF appears to have a greater emotional impact on adolescent girls than boys (75). Such gender differences may contribute to differing levels of nonadherence and subsequently poorer outcome for adolescent girls (87,(94)(95)(96).

“…Según cifras nacionales, hasta junio de 2005, en Chile existían al menos 309 pacientes con FQ registrados en el Programa Ministerial, de los cuales 44 (14,2%) eran mayores de 18 años (comunicación personal). Si bien la sobrevida se ha incrementado, el número de complicaciones respiratorias y no respiratorias también ha mostrado un aumento significativo, siendo más frecuentes en la edad adulta 3,4 . Recientemente, la rama broncopulmonar de la Sociedad Chilena de Pediatría publicó las normas nacionales para estandarizar y optimizar el manejo de la FQ en niños 5 .…”
