  • * Second mutation detected by sequencing.

  • Infants with meconium ileus (no. 21–24) were excluded from the analysis.

  • This infant was missed with IRT/PAP but detected with IRT/DNA/sequencing.

  • CF, cystic fibrosis; IRT, immunoreactive trypsinogen; PAP, pancreatitis-associated protein.
