Records of patients enrolled in a natural history study of ARPKD/CHF at the NIH were reviewed for a history of respiratory symptoms for a history of respiratory symptoms and/or respiratory tract infections, prior pulmonary function test results, and chest imaging. Sampling of nNO was performed through a foam nasal probe during exhalation through a resistor and was measured in real-time via a NiOx (Aerocrine) chemiluminescense analyzer. Values from ARPKD patients were compared to the nNO measurements from healthy volunteers.
