Body mass index and its correlation with pulmonary function in patients with cystic fibrosis from Cartagena, Colombia

Background. Sinus-pulmonary manifestations are a major concern in CF patients. Pulmonary function shows a strong relationship with nutritional status. In Colombia, malnutrition is a public health issue; however there are no reports that fully analyze nutritional status and lung function in CF childr...
