CFTR dysfunction results in a multiorgan disease with the main clinical features being exocrine pancreatic insufficiency and diffuse bronchiectasis with chronic airway infection leading to respiratory failure and premature death. Over the past decades, major progress has been made by implementing multidisciplinary care, including nutritional support, airway clearance techniques and antibiotics in specialised CF centres. The past decade has further seen the progressive development of oral medications, called CFTR modulators, for which around 80% of people with CF are genetically eligible in Europe. CFTR modulators partially restore ion transport and lead to a rapid and major improvement in clinical manifestations and lung function, presumably resulting in longer survival. CFTR modulators have been game-changing in the care of people with CF. However, many questions remain unanswered, such as the long-term effects of CFTR modulators, especially when treatment is started very early in life, or the new CF-related disease emerging due to CFTR modulators. Moreover, severe complications of CF, such as diabetes or cirrhosis, are not reversed on CFTR modulators and around 20% of people with CF bear <i>CFTR</i> variants leading to a CFTR protein that is unresponsive to CFTR modulators. Challenges also arise in adapting CF care to a changing disease. In this review article, we highlight the new questions and challenges emerging from this revolution in CF care.</p>","PeriodicalId":12166,"journal":{"name":"European Respiratory Review","volume":"33 173","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":9.0,"publicationDate":"2024-09-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11423132/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142336359","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Asian patients with bronchiectasis are less likely to show female predominance and experience exacerbations, are more likely to be younger, have milder disease, and have fewer options for guideline-recommended treatment than those living in other global regions. Furthermore, Asian bronchiectasis patients demonstrate different comorbidities, microbiological profiles and unique endophenotypes, including post-tuberculosis and dry bronchiectasis.

Used as clinical decision support, this software will soon become part of day-to-day practice once concerns regarding generalisability have been addressed. Embodied in the electronic health record, digital medicine also plays a substantial role in the day-to-day clinical practice of respiratory medicine. Given the considerable work the electronic health record demands from clinicians, the next tangible impact of digital medicine may be artificial intelligence that aids administration, makes record keeping easier and facilitates better digital communication with patients. Future promises of digital medicine are based on their potential to analyse and characterise the large amounts of digital clinical data that are collected in routine care. Offering the potential to predict outcomes and personalise therapy, there is much to be excited by in this new epoch of innovation. However, these digital tools are by no means a silver bullet.
