Study reveals hidden differences in Kids' lung diseases during exercise
NCT ID NCT07157644
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This completed study looked at 88 children with cystic fibrosis (CF) or primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) to compare how well they can exercise, how their muscles use oxygen, and how strong their breathing muscles are. Researchers used walking tests and muscle oxygen monitors to measure these factors. The goal was to better understand the differences between these two genetic lung diseases, which both cause breathing problems and limit physical activity.
