Abstract
The concordance of pancreatic and pulmonary status among siblings with cystic fibrosis, the cystic fibrosis genotype, and non-genetic factors were analysed in adult patients with cystic fibrosis. Genetic factors were more important than non-genetic factors in affecting the severity of pancreatic and lung disease. The genetic factors were independent of each other and did not invariably cosegregate with specific mutations at the cystic fibrosis locus.Entities:
