Abstract:Objective To examine the association between nutritional status and dietary factors in children and adolescents with cystic fibrosis that are carriers of delta F508 mutation. Methods Cross-sectional study of cystic fibrosis children and adolescents. Nutritional status (body mass index percentile) and dietary intake (3-day diet records presented as a percentage of estimated energy requirement) were assessed. Results Thirty six patients (median of 8.6; interquartile range 6.8-12.5 years; 50% male). The Poisson r… Show more
“…Santos et al reported a total percentage of 75% Phe508del pathogenic variants in 36 CF patients; of which 27.7% were homozygous and 47.3% were heterozygous. 21 Similarly, homozygous and heterozygous Phe508del pathogenic variant rates were reported as 53 and 39%, respectively, in a study by Gangell et al analyzing 215 children diagnosed with CF. 12 MacKenzie et al reported 46.4% homozygous and 39.3% heterozygous Phe508del pathogenic variants among their patients reached several 26,000 in 2010 from the multicenter research that was conducted between 2000 and 2016 in collaboration with 110 CF institutions.…”
We aimed to evaluate type, frequency, and variety of pathogenic variants according to clinical and demographic features of children diagnosed with cystic fibrosis (CF). Twenty-five CF patients were evaluated retrospectively. Patients' demographics, physical examination, imaging, laboratory, and molecular pathogenic variant analysis findings were evaluated. Phe508del was the most frequently (33.3%) detected pathogenic variant, followed by point pathogenic variants E92K, 1898 + lGA/7T/7T, and 2789 + 5GA, respectively. Statistically higher rates of pathogenic variants were detected in male patients. The most frequently detected pathogenic variant was Phe508del. The identification of nine additional pathogenic variants of Phe508del revealed the heterogeneous nature of the CF.

“…Individuals homozygous for F508del typically present with earlier and more severe respiratory complications and have earlier mortality ( Johansen et al, 1991 ; De Braekeleer et al, 1997 a; Mackenzie et al, 2014 ; Keogh et al, 2018 ). Most F508del homozygotes have exocrine pancreatic insufficiency but the effect of this genotype on weight and body mass index is controversial ( Lanng et al, 1991 ; Santos and Steemburgo, 2015 ; Leung et al, 2020 ; Medza et al, 2021 ). Homozygotes for F508del also have impaired glucose tolerance and a higher risk of cystic fibrosis-related diabetes (CFRD) ( Hamdi et al, 1993 ; Street et al, 2012 ).…”
People living with cystic fibrosis (pwCF) homozygous for F508del present more
severe phenotypes. PwCF with compound heterozygous genotypes F508del /A455E and
F508del /L206W may have milder cystic fibrosis (CF) phenotypes. We compared
F508del homozygotes and common compound heterozygotes (F508del and a second
pathogenic variant) in adult patients. Nutritional, pulmonary function and
glucose homeostasis indices data were collected from the prospective Montreal CF
cohort. Two-hundred and three adults with CF having at least one F508del variant
were included. Individuals were divided into subgroups: homozygous
F508del/F508del (n=149); F508del/621+1G>T (n=17); F508del/711+1G>T (n=11);
F508del/A455E (n=12); and F508del/L206W (n=14). Subgroups with the F508del/L206W
and F508del/A455E had a lower proportion with pancreatic exocrine insufficiency
(p<0.0001), a higher fat mass (p<0.0001), and lower glucose area under the
curve (AUC) (p=0.027). The F508del/L206W subgroup had significantly higher
insulin secretion (AUC; p=0.027) and body mass index (p<0.001). Pulmonary
function (FEV1) was significantly higher for the F508del/L206W subgroup
(p<0.0001). Over a median of 7.37 years, the risk of developing CFRD in 141
patients was similar between groups. PwCF with heterozygous F508del/L206W and
F508del/A455E tended to have pancreatic exocrine sufficiency, better nutritional
status, improved pulmonary function and better diabetogenic indices, but this
does not translate into lower risk of CF-related Diabetes.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
