BioEnergetics and Metabolomics in Cystic Fibrosis
Completed
Conditions studied: Cystic Fibrosis
In brief
With better medical care, patients with cystic fibrosis (CF), a life-threatening disease, are enjoying longer lives. As the CF life expectancy increases, conditions such as CF-related diabetes (CFRD) become more prevalent. Nutrition plays a major role in maintaining optimal health in cystic fibrosis (CF). This project is designed to investigate nutrition-related factors, such as diet and body composition, on outcomes in patients with CF. The data generated from this study will be used to inform future nutrition intervention studies in adults with CF and CFRD.
