| PLOS ONE
Discussion In the current study, only 11% of children and adolescents diagnosed with SCD showed normal PFTs. Among those with abnormal results, 32% exhibited a mixed pattern, while 28% presented a restrictive pattern and 29% demonstrated an obstructive pattern. These contrasts sharply with the control group, which had uniformly normal PFTs. Additionally, significant differences were noted between the cases and controls regarding FEV1, FVC, FEV1/FVC ratio, PEFR, and FeNO levels.
