AIM: Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a multi-systemic disease. Chronic inflammation and malabsorption may affect body composition, respiratory function and health outcomes. Our aim was to examine anthropometric measures, microbiologic data, spirometric data, comorbidities and how body composition may impact health outcomes in adult CF patients. METHODS: 31 adult CF patients (15 female, 16 male) with mean age 25 (18-42) and 23 controls were enrolled. The modified Medical Research Council (mMRC) scale, 6 minute-walk-test and pulmonary function test were performed. Anthropometric data including body mass index (BMI), fat-free mass index (FFMI) and total body fat percentiles were measured. Clinical indices, presence/absence of pancreatic insufficiency and method of nutrition were recorded. RESULTS: Mean duration of disease was 18.6±7.5 years. 24 of the patients (77%) were below targeted BMI. Mean BMI of the patients was 20.6±3.1 kg/m2 and mean FFMI was 16.4±1.6 kg/m2. When compared to control group, both BMI and FFMI were lower in CF patients (p |
