Respiratory symptoms in cystic fibrosis are both local and systemic. The local symptoms include cough, sputum, wheezing, haemoptysis and breathlessness, while systemic symptoms of malaise and fever occur with pulmonary infection. There are also interactions between respiratory and gastrointestinal systems in producing symptoms of malaise and weakness and these also contribute to the secondary psychological and social problems that a number of patients with cystic fibrosis experience. These local respiratory symptoms can be attributed in part to lung damage, but are also a manifestation of the CF defect itself. Similarly, lung damage, allergy, haemodynamic and nutritional changes all contribute to the symptom of breathlessness. Further improvement in symptoms in the future will come not only from limiting the lung damage but also from therapy aimed at reversing the CF defect itself.

Overt liver disease in cystic fibrosis is a rare condition. Only 1-5% of all patients show a severe disturbance of the liver cell function or portal hypertension. In contrast, liver architecture is much more often disturbed at post mortem examination. The experience is that liver pathology increases with age which will result in rising numbers of patients in the future parallel to the increasing life expectancy of the patients. Bile plugs are commonly found in the portal tract and probably represent the essential abnormality of the liver in CF. Recently new methods have been developed for the investigation of the bile synthesis which will be helpful in the understanding of the CF defect in the liver.

The infancy-childhood-puberty (ICP) growth model describes human growth from the latter half of the intrauterine life to maturity as three additive and partly superimposed components--infancy, childhood and puberty. Each component can be analysed mathematically and appears to be controlled by distinct biological mechanisms. The infancy component is largely nutrition dependent, the childhood component is mostly dependent on growth hormone (GH) and the pubertal component depends on the synergism between sex steroids and GH. The ICP model offers a method for detecting abnormalities in the three components, so that early intervention can be targeted and therapy monitored.

In an international study of children treated with growth hormone (GH), parental heights of 554 children with idiopathic growth hormone deficiency (IGHD) and of 248 children with secondary or 'organic' growth hormone deficiency (OGHD) were ascertained. The maternal height SDS of IGHD children was -0.41 +/- 1.26 (mean +/- SD) and the maternal height SDS of OGHD children was 0.03 +/- 1.11 (p less than 0.006). Paternal height SDS of IGHD children was -0.19 +/- 1.08, and paternal height SDS of OGHD children was 0.15 +/- 1.08 (p less than 0.006). Adverse deliveries were associated with significantly shorter mothers (p = 0.04) and a greater discrepancy between paternal and maternal heights (p less than 0.006).
