  • Title: Vitamin A and lung function in CF.
    Author: Aird FK, Greene SA, Ogston SA, Macdonald TM, Mukhopadhyay S.
    Journal: J Cyst Fibros; 2006 May; 5(2):129-31. PubMed ID: 16650745.
    Abstract:
    Laboratory evidence suggests that vitamin A could have a protective effect on respiratory status in patients with cystic fibrosis (CF). This study shows a significant correlation between serum vitamin A concentrations and every aspect of lung function tested in 38 patients with stable CF. Serum vitamin D and vitamin E concentrations were also measured but did not show any significant correlations with lung function.
