Title: Nitrites and nitrates in exhaled breath condensate in cystic fibrosis: relation to clinical parameters | ||
Author: L. Fila, J. Chladek, M. Maly, J. Musil | ||
Abstract: Objectives: To evaluate correlation of exhaled breath condensate (EBC) nitrite and nitrate concentrations with disease severity in cystic fibrosis (CF) patients. Results: EBC nitrates concentrations in CF patients were lower than in healthy subjects (5.8 vs 14.3 μmol/l, p<0.001). They correlated positively with FEV1 (p=0.025) and serum albumin values (p=0.016) and negatively with chest radiograph Northern score (p=0.015) and serum C-reactive protein values (p=0.005). EBC nitrites concentrations in CF patients did not differ from those in healthy subjects and were not correlated to any studied parameter. |
