Abstract Introduction Cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) modulator drugs target the underlying defect and improve CFTR function. They are a part of standard care in many countries, but not all patients eligible for these due to age genotype. Here, we aimed determine characteristics non‐eligible modulators CF registry Turkey (CFRT) highlight their clinical needs. Methods This retrospective cohort study included patient data from CFRT 2021. The decision eligibility was...

Dynamic hyperinflation (DH) is a major contributor to exercise intolerance in patients with obstructive lung diseases. However, it has not been investigated children bronchiectasis (BE). We aimed investigate dynamic ventilatory responses and their influence on functional capacity BE.Forty BE (mean forced expiratory volume 1 s [FEV1 ] = 78 ± 19%pred) were included. Six-minute walk test (6MWT) was conducted using Spiropalm 6MWT® for evaluating including inspiratory (IC), minute ventilation...
