Summary

This study looks at how cystic fibrosis affects children's breathing, muscle strength, bladder control, and daily life compared to healthy kids. Researchers will measure grip strength, lung function, and other health markers in 50 children aged 6-18. The goal is to identify problems that may be overlooked, so doctors can better support these children.
