Cystic Fibrosis Market in Europe 2015-2019

About Cystic Fibrosis
Cystic fibrosis, also known as mucoviscidosis, is a genetically inherited disease. The primary symptoms of cystic fibrosis include high salt content in the sweat, breathing difficulties, secretion of abnormally viscous mucus, respiratory complications, difficulties related to digestion, and growth anomalies. Cystic fibrosis is one of the most common genetic disorders observed in Caucasian children. Rare diseases are those that affect less than 5 patients per 10,000, as defined in the EU by Rare Disease UK. Cystic fibrosis is therefore classified under rare diseases. The incidence of cystic fibrosis varies between populations. It is significantly less common in Asian and African populations compared to Caucasians (people from Europe, North America, and Australasia), with a marked difference between each country in those regions. Precise data regarding the prevalence of cystic fibrosis in Europe is not available, but it is estimated to be 1 in 8,000-10,000 individuals. Cystic fibrosis is a chronic disease and is usually progressive in nature. The onset of cystic fibrosis typically occurs in early childhood or, rarely, at birth.  The principal manifestations of cystic fibrosis in patients are chronic bronchitis, pancreatic insufficiency, adolescent diabetes, pancreatitis, male sterility, and very rarely intestinal obstruction or liver cirrhosis. The mortality and morbidity of patients are dependent on the degree of bronchopulmonary involvement.
