   Extractions: True False Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a hereditary disease. CF is more common in white children than in children of other races. As many as 30% of Americans of European descent carry the gene which is responsible for CF. The lungs are the only organs affected by CF. A person with CF may have difficulty keeping off excess weight. Treatment of CF has not changed much in the past twenty-five years. The gene responsible for CF has been identified. There is no way to tell if a newborn will get CF. Gene therapy is a standardized treatment for CF. People with CF require treatment only when they have an attack.

It can have many symptoms, affecting different parts of the body, particularly the lungs and digestive system. CF is the most common inherited disease in white people, affecting about 1 in every 2,500 children born. It is much more rare in people of African or Asian descent. About one in five babies with CF are diagnosed at birth, when their gut becomes blocked by extra thick meconium (the black tar-like bowel contents that all babies pass soon after birth). This condition may need surgery. Just over half of people with CF are diagnosed as babies because they are not growing or putting on weight as they should. This is because the pancreas is not producing chemicals (enzymes) which pass into the gut as food leaves the stomach. Without these enzymes, the fat in food cannot be properly digested. In children who are affected, the fat passes straight through the gut. The child does not benefit from the energy from the fat. Since the stools contain an excess of fat, they are oily and very smelly.

The Cystic Fibrosis Foundation supports a broad range of medical research to achieve its mission of finding a cure or control for cystic fibrosis (CF) and to improve the quality and length of life for people with the disease. Over the years, CF Foundation-funded science has exponentially increased the understanding of the disease, building a strong base of knowledge. For instance, a team of CF scientists discovered the gene that causes CF and its symptom-provoking protein product. These discoveries, and many others, continually inspire completely novel strategies for scientists to explore innovative CF therapies.

    Extractions: Every day when she wakes up, Lisa's parents thump her back and chest for at least 20 minutes to help clear her lungs of the thick mucus that sometimes makes it difficult for her to breathe. At school, Lisa coughs a lot. She keeps a box of tissues on her desk - just in case - that she uses to cough up mucus. In gym class, she participates in sports but often gets tired easily. At lunchtime, Lisa takes pills to help her digest her food and get all the vitamins she needs. It's especially important that she keep up her strength so she can deal with a condition she's known all her life - cystic fibrosis (say: sis -tick fi- bro -ses). What Is CF? Cystic fibrosis (CF) is an illness that affects more than 30,000 children and young adults in the United States. It can be mild or severe, depending on the person. Cystic fibrosis affects the lungs , plugging them with mucus that often makes breathing difficult. If the mucus isn't cleared out of the lungs, it will trap bacteria and other germs , sometimes leading to serious infections.

Causes, incidence, and risk factors Return to top Cystic fibrosis affects the mucus and sweat glands of the body and is caused by a defective gene. Thick mucus is formed in the breathing passages of the lungs and this predisposes the person to chronic lung infections. Many pancreatic enzymes involved in the breakdown and absorption of fats in the intestine are absent, causing malabsorption (inadequate absorption of nutrients from the intestinal tract) and malnutrition. Most males with cystic fibrosis are infertile. About one in 2500 Caucasians is affected, and 2-5% of Caucasians carry the cystic fibrosis gene.

    Extractions: Printer-friendly version Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a genetic disease affecting approximately 30,000 children and adults in the United States. A defective gene causes the body to produce an abnormally thick, sticky mucus that clogs the lungs and leads to life-threatening lung infections. These thick secretions also obstruct the pancreas, preventing digestive enzymes from reaching the intestines to help break down and absorb food. More than 10 million Americans are unknowing, symptomless carriers of the defective CF gene. An individual must inherit two defective CF genes one from each parent to have CF. Each time two carriers conceive, there is a 25 percent chance that their child will have CF; a 50 percent chance that the child will be a carrier of the CF gene; and a 25 percent chance that the child will be a non-carrier. CF occurs in approximately one of every 3,200 live Caucasian births (in one of every 3,900 live births of all Americans). About 1,000 new cases of CF are diagnosed each year. More than 80 percent of patients are diagnosed by age three; however, nearly 10 percent of newly diagnosed cases are age 18 or older.
