Article Synopsis
  • Thirty-nine clinical isolates from 11 cystic fibrosis patients were analyzed over a 10-year period using whole genome sequencing (WGS) to study their genomic and phenotypic characteristics.
  • A single, persistent strain was identified in a long-term patient, showing reduced elastase activity and growth rate, which suggests adaptive changes over time, with no instances of transmission between patients or centers.
  • The study highlights unique genomic traits of the isolates, such as the conservation of biofilm and phenazine-related genes, and emphasizes the importance of integrating both genomic and virulence-related phenotypic testing in cystic fibrosis research.

Cow's milk allergy (CMA) is an immune-based disease that has become an increasing problem. The diagnosis and management of CMA varies from one clinical setting to another and represents a challenge in pediatric practice. In addition, because nonallergic food reactions can be confused with CMA symptoms, there is an overdiagnosis of the disease.
