“…However, the prevalence of B. cepacia-positivity was lower than that found in our study (5.2%). In another study comprising 36 CF patients and carried out in Recife, Brazil, (28) the prevalence of infection with B. cepacia was 29.2%, which is similar to that found in our study. Despite the considerable knowledge of the physiopathological role of chronic bacterial infection in the evolution of the pulmonary disease in CF patients, few studies have investigated the relationship between chronic bacterial infection and HP.…”

“…The bronchial tree colonization by agents such as Pseudomonas aeruginosa and/or Staphylococcus aureus has suggested serious impact on pulmonary function. According to Magalhães et al 22 , chronic inflammation, secondary to the infectious process, causes irreversible damage in the bronchial walls, determining the degradation with consequent decline in lung function.…”

“…Ao sinalizar o gene causador da doença, entende-se que o transporte de íons, como o cloreto e sódio, pela proteína CFTR será anormal (CABELLO et al, 2003). Com este comprometimento devido a escassa secreção de íons de cloro e o maior influxo de sódio e água pela célula, resulta em alterações físico-químicas das propriedades do muco, o tornando mais viscoso, desidratado, espesso e assim podendo comprometer os ductos de demais órgãos (MAGALHÃES et al, 2004).…”
