This was truly amazing and educational to someone outside of the medical profession. Thank you for the work you do! It makes crucial information accessible to members of the public like me.
Excellent breakdown - CF has a long road to the foreground in adult medicine with Trikafta's game-changing efficacy in some patients. I'm doubtful of how well peds facilities will keep up with a growing population of older patients (thankfully due to longer, healthier lives).
Maybe useful to note what ED docs would see to catch mild CF/atypical/cftr related disorder before this outcome. My journey to mild CF diagnosis was....stupid. I needed the aid of my genetic training, my veterinarian friends and my connections at my former job to be assessed for CF despite multiple hospitalisations for shortness of breath resistant to albuterol and metabolic symptoms. I would BE her if I didnt happen to work in genetics and my friends werent trained in vet med.
I learned a daunting truth when it comes to the American doctor's negligence with parasitic infections, and it is baffling. When labwork is done, the physian does not receive the full scope of the lab results like the patient can see in their patient portal. I just discovered this and have proof. But who do I tell that could do something about it?

Nice job NEJM. Always helpful
This is fantastic content. Thank you for releasing this to the public, so provides at all levels of training can continue to educate themselves.
Great case, beautifully presented, unfortunate ending for her, yet it impels us to always strive to improve, to help our next patient...

was thinking dormant TB or Allergens in the beginning.
Where CRISPR ?
What are the exact prevalences of each mutation by race?
