Summary
This study looked at whether a non-invasive breathing test called the lung clearance index (LCI) can find early signs of lung disease in young children with cystic fibrosis. 53 children aged 3 to 6 took the test along with standard lung scans and function tests. The goal was to see if LCI helps doctors start treatment sooner and choose the best therapy.
