DOI: 10.1002/humu.23905
Abstract: Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) is a genetically heterogeneous disease of motile cilia. Even though PCD is widely studied, North‐African patients have been rarely explored. In this study, we aim at confirming the clinical diagnosis and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/jcu.22862
Abstract: Situs inversus, a condition in which the major visceral organs are reversed from their normal positions in the body, can be detected by prenatal ultrasonography. Often benign, it may be associated with primary ciliary dyskinesia,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ppul.24159
Abstract: Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) and cri du chat syndrome (CdCS) are distinct disorders that can co‐occur due to a common genetic locus on chromosome 5p. Chronic respiratory symptoms associated with PCD can occur in CdCS… read more here.

Cytoplasmic “ciliary inclusions” in isolation are not sufficient for the diagnosis of primary ciliary dyskinesia

DOI: 10.1002/ppul.24528
Abstract: The diagnosis of primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) is difficult and requires a combination of clinical features, nasal nitric oxide testing, cilia ultrastructural analysis by electron microscopy (EM), and genetics. A recently described cytoplasmic ultrastructural change… read more here.

Primary ciliary dyskinesia due to CCNO mutations—A genotype‐phenotype correlation contribution
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2021 at "Pediatric Pulmonology"
DOI: 10.1002/ppul.25440
Abstract: Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) is genetically and clinically heterogeneous. CCNO mutations are associated with chronic destructive lung disease and were first described in 2014. Early reports suggest that CCNO is mutated more frequently than expected,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ppul.25853
Abstract: Organ laterality defects in primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) are common, ranging from complete mirror image organ arrangement, situs inversus totalis (SIT), to situs ambiguus (SA), which falls along the spectrum of situs solitus (SS) and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ppul.25945
Abstract: Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) is a rare inherited disease that affects the movement of the respiratory cilia. The main clinical manifestations are chronic upper and lower respiratory symptoms and recurrent lung infections, particularly bacterial and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ppul.26158
Abstract: Assessment of exercise capacity is important for information about lung function and prognosis in primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD). In addition, deterioration in the pulmonary system may affect cough efficiency, posture, and thoracoabdominal mobility. In turn,… read more here.
