  • Title: Overweight and obesity in deltaF508 homozygous cystic fibrosis.
    Author: Kastner-Cole D, Palmer CN, Ogston SA, Mehta A, Mukhopadhyay S.
    Journal: J Pediatr; 2005 Sep; 147(3):402-4. PubMed ID: 16182686.
    Abstract:
    Overweight (9%) and obesity (1%) in patients with cystic fibrosis homozygous for the deltaF508 mutation (CFdeltaF508) were non-trivial. Children with CFdeltaF508, in contrast to the general population, showed a positive association between body mass index and lung function for all body mass index z-scores.
