Body composition and pulmonary function in Cystic Fibrosis
Background: Lower body mass index (BMI) is associated with worse pulmonary function in cystic fibrosis (CF). <br/>Hypothesis: Lean body mass (LBM) is more strongly associated with pulmonary function than BMI is.<br/>Methods: Anthropometrics, body composition by dual x-ray absorptiometry,...
