The news reporters obtained a quote from the research, "All patients with CF who attended the respiratory clinic at Queen Rania Al-Abdallah Hospital from January 2000 to April 2010 were included in this retrospective case-control study. A specially formulated data sheet was used and those with PBS and those not having the syndrome were identified. A total of 110 patients (51% female) with CF with a median age of seven years were followed-up. Eighteen (16.3%) of them had one or more episodes of PBS. The median follow-up period was 6.2 years. All the episodes occurred during summer and in infancy. Median age of the initial episode of PBS was three months. One-third of them were initially followed at the nephrology clinic. Three patterns of PBS were identified: single episode in three (16.6%) patients, recurrent in 12 (66.6%) patients and chronic in three (16.6%) patients. Early colonization of Pseudomonas spp before 1 st birthday was seen in 44% patients with PBS compared with 12% in other CF patients (P-value=0.0075). The total number of colonized patients and other CF features at the time of the study did not differ significantly among patients, although the mean Shwachman-Kulczycki score is significantly lower in those with recurrent PBS (69 compared with 85 in other CF patients). Gene mutation was identified in only 30% of the entire cohort. PBS is common in patients with CF, and it should be kept in mind in any patient with hypotonic dehydration and metabolic alkalosis."
