Background
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is an autosomal recessive, multisystem disorder affecting ion transportation across epithelial membranes. Respiratory complications are the leading cause of morbidity and mortality and CF lung disease is characterised...

Purpose
Vitamin D status has been shown to significantly impact extra-skeletal health outcomes. In the UK, the ability of the population to synthesize vitamin D is highly sensitive to environmental factors including ultraviolet-B wavelength light. T...
