  • 0, no identified mutation; A, CF-causing mutation; B, mutation associated with cystic CFTR-related disorders; C, mutation with no clinical consequence ; D, mutation of unknown or uncertain clinical relevance; AB, mutation that is associated with a wide phenotypic spectrum that might belong to either group A or B.

  • CFTR, cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator; HIRT, hypertrypsinaemia; NPD, nasal potential difference.
