What abnormalities lead to the mucus plugging seen in children with cystic fibrosis (CF)?

◦ Excess mucus plugs the gut and keeps it from absorbing water effectively.
◦ A weak inflammatory response allows bacterial to colonize the mucus.
◦ Defective chloride secretion and excess sodium absorption thicken the mucus.
◦ Pulmonary vascular remodeling occurs that leads to chronic hypoxia.
