This study tests whether a specific exercise program can improve muscle strength, breathing, and fitness in children with cystic fibrosis who are stable and able to exercise.
This study tests whether a Mediterranean-style diet can improve gastrointestinal health in children with cystic fibrosis. It requires families to follow the diet for 6 months and attend regular clinic visits.
This study looks at mood and behavior in children with cystic fibrosis (CF) under 12. By following children over time, researchers hope to better understand and help with depression, anxiety, and behavior challenges that may come up.
This study uses a special MRI that can show inflammation in the lungs. It looks at healthy children and children with mild cystic fibrosis to test if the scan can detect early changes. If you join, you will breathe in a special gas during the MRI.
This study compares two ways to collect sweat from babies' arms versus legs to see which works better for diagnosing cystic fibrosis (CF). If your baby is being checked for CF, this trial may help improve the testing process.
This study compares children and teens with primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) to healthy kids to learn more about the condition. It may help improve understanding and care for PCD.
