Parenthood impacts short-term health outcomes in people with cystic fibrosis

There is a major knowledge gap regarding the health impacts of parenthood in people with cystic fibrosis (CF). Using UK CF registry data to evaluate parenthood's impact on health outcomes, Dr. Traci Kazmerski and her team found that parenthood adversely impacts short-term health outcomes for people with CF. To better understand the impact of the widespread use CFTR modulators, longer-term, prospective parenthood studies are needed.
