Situs Ambiguus Is Associated With Adverse Clinical Outcomes in Children With Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia. Chest 2024; 165:1070-1081. [PMID: 38072392 PMCID: PMC11110675 DOI: 10.1016/j.chest.2023.12.005] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/07/2023] [Revised: 11/01/2023] [Accepted: 12/03/2023] [Indexed: 01/24/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) is a rare disorder of motile cilia associated with situs abnormalities. At least 12% of patients with PCD have situs ambiguus (SA), including organ laterality defects falling outside normal arrangement (situs solitus [SS]) or mirror image inversion (situs inversus totalis [SIT]). RESEARCH QUESTION Do patients with PCD and SA achieve worse clinical outcomes compared with those with SS or SIT? STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS This cross-sectional, multicenter study evaluated participants aged 21 years or younger with PCD. Participants were classified as having SA, including heterotaxy, or not having SA (SS or SIT). Markers of disease severity were compared between situs groups, adjusting for age at enrollment and severe CCDC39 or CCDC40 genotype, using generalized linear models and logistic and Poisson regression. RESULTS In 397 participants with PCD (mean age, 8.4 years; range, 0.1-21), 42 patients were classified as having SA, including 16 patients (38%) with complex cardiovascular malformations or atrial isomerism, 13 patients (31%) with simple CVM, and 13 patients (31%) without cardiovascular malformations. Of these, 15 patients (36%) underwent cardiac surgery, 24 patients (57%) showed an anatomic spleen abnormality, and seven patients (17%) showed both. The remaining 355 participants did not have SA, including 152 with SIT and 203 with SS. Overall, 70 participants (17%) harbored the severe CCDC39 or CCDC40 genotype. Compared with participants without SA, those with SA showed lower median BMI z scores (P = .03), lower FVC z scores (P = .01), and more hospitalizations and IV antibiotic courses for acute respiratory infections during the 5 years before enrollment (P < .01). Participants with cardiovascular malformations requiring surgery or with anatomic spleen abnormalities showed lower median BMI z scores and more hospitalizations and IV therapies for respiratory illnesses compared with participants without SA. INTERPRETATION Children with PCD and SA achieve worse nutritional and pulmonary outcomes with more hospitalizations for acute respiratory illnesses than those with SS or SIT combined. Poor nutrition and increased hospitalizations for respiratory infections in participants with SA and PCD are associated with cardiovascular malformations requiring cardiac surgery, splenic anomalies, or both.

Abstract
IMPORTANCE PCD is a rare disease characterized by productive cough, rhinitis, and recurrent infections of the upper and lower airways. Because the diagnosis of PCD is often delayed, patients receive more antibiotics, experience a heavier financial burden, and have a worse prognosis; thus, it is very important to identify the pathogeny and use the correct antibiotic. In this large single-center study of PCD microbiota, we identified an outline of the bacterial microbes from the respiratory tract; furthermore, we found that the microbiota diversity in pediatric sputum was richer than that in pediatric BALF through sequencing, indicating a heterogeneous community structure. The microbiota diversity and richness were lower during pulmonary exacerbation than during pulmonary stabilization. A significantly higher abundance of Pseudomonas had a moderate distinguishing effect for lung exacerbation, which attracted more attention for the study of Pseudomonas therapy in pediatric patients with PCD.

Lung Function in Children with Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia. CHILDREN (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2023; 10:children10020290. [PMID: 36832419 PMCID: PMC9955480 DOI: 10.3390/children10020290] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/09/2022] [Revised: 01/19/2023] [Accepted: 01/30/2023] [Indexed: 02/05/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) is characterized by impaired mucociliary clearance that results in accumulation of mucus and bacteria in the airways. Lower respiratory tract infections lead to airway remodeling and lung function impairment. The aim of our narrative review is to discuss available data on lung function in PCD children, focusing on risk factors for lung function impairment. METHODS Relevant published studies searching MEDLINE/Pubmed are included in this narrative review, using these terms: "primary ciliary dyskinesia" and "pulmonary function test" or "spirometry" or "lung function". Filters were language (English) and age of study subjects (0-18 years). RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS The majority of recent published studies showed normal spirometric values in PCD children, even if some authors described a pulmonary impairment. Together with spirometry, Lung Clearance Index has been applied for detecting peripheral airway disease, and it might have a role in early mild lung disease assessment. Studies on lung function trajectories after PCD diagnosis showed a significant heterogeneity, with some patients maintaining reasonably good lung function, whereas others showing a decline. Further studies are needed to analyze lung function prospectively from childhood into adulthood, and to evaluate whether lung function trajectories are affected by PCD clinical phenotype, ultrastructural ciliary defect or genetic background.

Zafar A, Hall M. In children with primary ciliary dyskinesia, which type of lung function test is the earliest determinant of decline in lung health: A systematic review. Pediatr Pulmonol 2023; 58:475-483. [PMID: 36268989 DOI: 10.1002/ppul.26213] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/10/2022] [Revised: 10/12/2022] [Accepted: 10/15/2022] [Indexed: 01/28/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Primary ciliary dyskinesia is a rare genetic disorder characterized by recurrent sinopulmonary infections and worsening obstructive lung disease. Kidney and brain involvement is less common and is associated with overlapping ciliopathies/syndromes. The lungs are impacted early in the course of the disease, so it is vital to monitor lung function and recognize any decline by doing appropriate lung function tests. This systematic review compares different lung function tests and analyzes which one becomes abnormal earlier in the disease. METHODS A systematic review was conducted following the methodology in the "Cochrane Handbook on Systematic Reviews for diagnostic tests." The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analyses were used to report the results. The risk of bias assessment was done using "The Cochrane Handbook for Systematic Reviews tool for interventional studies." A meta-analysis was not performed due to the small sample size. All studies were analyzed by using Joanna Briggs Institute's critical appraisal tool. RESULTS After screening for the duplication of results and applying inclusion and exclusion criteria, 14 studies were assessed by reading the full texts. Out of these, eight were finally included in this systematic review. The total sample size from all studies was 165, including 80 males. All the studies used spirometry as a lung function test, whereas multiple breath washout was used in five studies. Other tests used for comparison were computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), cardiopulmonary exercise testing, 6-min walk test, DLCO, maximal inspiratory pressure, maximal expiratory pressure, and PaO2 . Lung clearance index (LCI) by multiple breath washout had a stronger association with the structural changes on CT/MRI than spirometry indices like forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1) and forced expiratory flow at 25% to 75% of lung volume (FEF 25-75). CONCLUSIONS Based on the evidence from this systematic review, LCI becomes abnormal earlier than FEV1 or FEF 25-75 and positively correlates with the findings on high-resolution CT. It has limitations like the lack of reference values and a complex technique to perform the test.

AMERICAN JOURNAL OF MEDICAL GENETICS PART C: SEMINARS IN MEDICAL GENETICS 2022; 190:20-35. [PMID: 35352480 PMCID: PMC9314966 DOI: 10.1002/ajmg.c.31967] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/10/2022] [Revised: 03/10/2022] [Accepted: 03/15/2022] [Indexed: 12/01/2022]
Abstract
Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) can be defined as a multiorgan ciliopathy with a dominant element of chronic airway disease affecting the nose, sinuses, middle ear, and in particular, the lower airways. Although most patients with PCD are diagnosed during preschool years, it is obvious that the chronic lung disease starts its course already from birth. The many faces of the clinical picture change, as does lung function, structural lung damage, the burden of infection, and of treatment throughout life. A markedly severe neutrophil inflammation in the respiratory tract seems pervasive and is only to a minimal extent ameliorated by a treatment strategy, which is predominantly aimed at bacterial infections. An ever‐increasing understanding of the different aspects, their interrelationships, and possible different age courses conditioned by the underlying genotype is the focus of much attention. The future is likely to offer personalized medicine in the form of mRNA therapy, but to that end, it is of utmost importance that all patients with PCD be carefully characterized and given a genetic diagnosis. In this narrative review, we have concentrated on lower airways and summarized the current understanding of the chronic airway disease in this motile ciliopathy. In addition, we highlight the challenges, gaps, and opportunities in PCD lung disease research.

Abstract
Background Mostly derived from chart reviews, where symptoms are recorded in a nonstandardised manner, clinical data about primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) are inconsistent, which leads to missing and unreliable information. We assessed the prevalence and frequency of respiratory and ear symptoms and studied differences by age and sex among an unselected population of Swiss people with PCD. Methods We sent a questionnaire that included items from the FOLLOW-PCD standardised questionnaire to all Swiss PCD registry participants. Results We received questionnaires from 74 (86%) out of 86 invited persons or their caregivers (median age 23 years, range 3–73 years), including 68% adults (≥18 years) and 51% females. Among participants, 70 (94%) reported chronic nasal symptoms; most frequently runny nose (65%), blocked nose (55%) or anosmia (38%). Ear pain and hearing problems were reported by 58% of the participants. Almost all (99%) reported cough and sputum production. The most common chronic cough complications were gastro-oesophageal reflux (n=11; 15%), vomiting (n=8; 11%) and urinary incontinence (n=6; 8%). Only nine (12%) participants reported frequent wheeze, which occurred mainly during infection or exercise, while 49 (66%) reported shortness of breath, and 9% even at rest or during daily activities. Older patients reported more frequent nasal symptoms and shortness of breath. We found no difference by sex or ultrastructural ciliary defect. Conclusion This is the first study to describe patient-reported PCD symptoms. The consistent collection of standardised clinical data will allow us to better characterise the phenotypic variability of the disease and study disease course and prognosis. Detailed information about patient-reported PCD symptoms will help characterise the phenotypic variability of the disease and could inform the development of individualised treatment strategies for patientshttps://bit.ly/363Zb4T

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) is a rare genetic disease mainly involved in lung dysfunction. PCD patient outcomes after azithromycin (AZM) treatment have rarely been reported. This study was aimed to assess AZM treatment effects on disease progression of pediatric PCD patients. STUDY DESIGN This retrospective follow-up study involved PCD patients diagnosed from 2009 to 2021. Changes of clinical outcomes, pulmonary function, and chest computed tomography findings were compared between untreated and AZM-treated patients. RESULTS Of 71 enrolled patients (median follow-up duration of 3.1 years), 34 received AZM (AZM-treated group) and 37 received no AZM (AZM-untreated group). At diagnosis, no significant intergroup differences in age, sex, height, weight, number of respiratory exacerbations, and FEV1% and FVC% predicted values were found, although FEF25-75% predicted was lower in AZM-treated group. Between treatment initiation and follow-up, patients in AZM-treated group had less respiratory exacerbations than that of AZM-untreated group (mean ± SD, 1.4 ± 0.8 vs. 3.0 ± 2.1, times/year P = 0.001) and fewer AZM-treated group patients exhibited exercise intolerance. Increases above baseline of AZM-treated FEV1% and FVC% predicted values exceeded that of AZM-untreated group, but intergroup differences were insignificant (FEV1% predicted: (median, IQR) 5.3 [-13.4, 9.4] vs. 1.8 [-12.1, 9.5], P = 0.477; FVC% predicted: (median, IQR) 6.7 [-7.6, 18.8] vs. 1.6 [-5.6, 7.6], P = 0.328). CONCLUSION Long-term AZM treatment can reduce respiratory infection frequency and may maintain pulmonary diseases stable in pediatric PCD patients with worse lung function.

Abstract
Objectives Disease-specific, well-defined and validated clinical outcome measures are essential in designing research studies. Poorly defined outcome measures hamper pooling of data and comparisons between studies. We aimed to identify and describe pulmonary outcome measures that could be used for follow-up of patients with primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD). Methods We conducted a scoping review by systematically searching MEDLINE, Embase and the Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews online databases for studies published from 1996 to 2020 that included ≥10 PCD adult and/or paediatric patients. Results We included 102 studies (7289 patients). 83 studies reported on spirometry, 11 on body plethysmography, 15 on multiple-breath washout, 36 on high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT), 57 on microbiology and 17 on health-related quality of life. Measurement and reporting of outcomes varied considerably between studies (e.g. different scoring systems for chest HRCT scans). Additionally, definitions of outcome measures varied (e.g. definition of chronic colonisation by respiratory pathogen), impeding direct comparisons of results. Conclusions This review highlights the need for standardisation of measurements and reporting of outcome measures to enable comparisons between studies. Defining a core set of clinical outcome measures is necessary to ensure reproducibility of results and for use in future trials and prospective cohorts.

Abstract
Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) is a rare genetic ciliopathy in which mucociliary clearance is disturbed by the abnormal motion of cilia or there is a severe reduction in the generation of multiple motile cilia. Lung damage ensues due to recurrent airway infections, sometimes even resulting in respiratory failure. So far, no causative treatment is available and treatment efforts are primarily aimed at improving mucociliary clearance and early treatment of bacterial airway infections. Treatment guidelines are largely based on cystic fibrosis (CF) guidelines, as few studies have been performed on PCD. In this review, we give a detailed overview of the clinical studies performed investigating PCD to date, including three trials and several case reports. In addition, we explore precision medicine approaches in PCD, including gene therapy, mRNA transcript and read-through therapy.

Longitudinal Lung Volume Changes by Ultrastructure and Genotype in Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia. Ann Am Thorac Soc 2021; 18:963-970.

Abstract
Rationale: Genotype-phenotype relationships are emerging in primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD), but little is known about lung volume changes over time. Objectives: To investigate the evolution of static lung volumes with ultrastructural defects, gene mutations, body mass index, and specific infections in PCD. Methods: Prospective, longitudinal, single-center study in children and adults evaluated twice yearly for up to 10 years. Linear mixed-effects models were used to assess associations between ciliary morphology, genetic mutations, and clinical features. Results: A total of 122 patients had 1,096 visits. At enrollment, almost all spirometric and, especially in adults, plethysmographic parameters were significantly worse in absent inner dynein arms (IDAs), central apparatus (CA) defects, and microtubular disorganization (MTD) (IDA/CA/MTD) compared with patients with normal electron microscopy (EM) results. The mean trend increase with time for residual volume (RV) was significantly higher in IDA/CA/MTD group compared with groups with outer dynein arm defect and normal EM results. The mean trend of RV/total lung capacity in the IDA/CA/MTD group was significantly worse than in all other groups. The steepest rise in lung volumes was in CCDC39 and CCDC40, whereas hyperinflation increased less in DNAH5 and DNAH11 groups. RV/total lung capacity showed a significantly steeper rise in patients with Pseudomonas aeruginosa compared with patients with other infections or patients without infection. Conclusions: Patients with IDA/CA/MTD defects or CCDC39 and CCDC40 mutations had the greatest increase in hyperinflation, whereas those with outer dynein arm defect and normal EM results or DNAH11 and DNAH5 mutations had less severe changes. We have robustly confirmed the worse prognosis for some genetic and ultrastructural defects, which association hitherto rested solely on spirometry.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Patients with primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) may present with different clinical findings at different ages, and age at diagnosis may differ. We aimed to review clinical factors that affected age at diagnosis of patients with PCD. STUDY DESIGN All 70 patients with PCD who were followed in our pediatric pulmonology department were included. Demographic features, clinical findings, PrImary CiliAry DyskinesiA Rule (PICADAR) scores and pulmonary function tests of patients were recorded and clinical factors that affected age at diagnosis were evaluated. RESULTS The mean age at diagnosis was 8.3 ± 4.6 years. Most of patients (95.7%) had a persistent wet cough. The mean PICADAR score was 6.5 ± 3.2, and there was a negative correlation between PICADAR and age at diagnosis (r = -0.271, p = .023). The mean ages at diagnosis of patients with situs abnormality and recurrent wheezing were earlier than in patients without situs abnormality and recurrent wheezing (6.7 ± 4.3 and 6.8 ± 4.3, p = .002 vs. 9.8 ± 4.3 and 9.0 ± 4.6 years, p = .040, respectively). The mean age at diagnosis of patients with bronchiectasis was later than in patients without bronchiectasis (10.8 ± 3.9 and 6.9 ± 4.4 years, p = .001). Other clinical features were not statistically significant according to age at diagnosis (p > .05). There was no statistically significant relation between age at diagnosis and sex, sibling or relative with PCD and parental consanguinity (p > .05). CONCLUSION Although most patients diagnosed with PCD had symptoms, the diagnosis may be delayed. High PICADAR score is a useful guide to evaluate PCD. Situs abnormality and recurrent wheezing could be clues for early diagnosis of PCD. Early diagnosis of PCD may prevent bronchiectasis.

Abstract
Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) is an inherited cause of bronchiectasis. The estimated PCD prevalence in children with bronchiectasis is up to 26% and in adults with bronchiectasis is 1 to 13%. Due to dysfunction of the multiple motile cilia of the respiratory tract patients suffer from poor mucociliary clearance. Clinical manifestations are heterogeneous; however, a typical patient presents with chronic productive cough and rhinosinusitis from early life. Other symptoms reflect the multiple roles of motile cilia in other organs and can include otitis media and hearing loss, infertility, situs inversus, complex congenital heart disease, and more rarely other syndromic features such as hydrocephalus and retinitis pigmentosa. Awareness, identification, and diagnosis of a patient with PCD are important for multidisciplinary care and genetic counseling. Diagnosis can be pursued through a multitest pathway which includes the measurement of nasal nitric oxide, sampling the nasal epithelium to assess ciliary function and structure, and genotyping. Diagnosis is confirmed by the identification of a hallmark ultrastructural defect or pathogenic mutations in one of > 45 PCD causing genes. When a diagnosis is established management is centered around improving mucociliary clearance through physiotherapy and treatment of infection with antibiotics. The first international randomized controlled trial in PCD has recently been conducted showing azithromycin is effective in reducing exacerbations. It is likely that evidence-based PCD-specific management guidelines and therapies will be developed in the near future. This article examines prevalence, clinical features, diagnosis, and management of PCD highlighting recent advances in basic science and clinical care.

Abstract
Objectives: Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) is a chronic genetic disease that affects the respiratory tract, characterized by different clinical and laboratory features. It has a very difficult diagnosis, and high morbidity. In recent years, with the advances in genetics, the rate of diagnosis has increased considerably. In this study, it was aimed to evaluate the relationship between PCD patients’ clinical, radiological and laboratory features and genetic analysis. Methods: The study included 14 children who were diagnosed with PCD between 2015-2019 and underwent exome analysis. Diagnostic ages, body mass indexes (BMI)- Z score, clinical and radiological findings, pulmonary function tests, sputum culture reproduction and gene analysis were evaluated and compared. Results: Six of the patients (43%) were girls and 8 (57%) were boys, and the median age at the time of diagnosis was 9 (min-max: 3-16) years. Genetic analysis revealed pathogenic mutations in DNAH5 (n=4, 29%), DNAH11 (n=2, 14%), RSPH4A (n=2, 14%), CCDC40 (n=2, 14%), DNAH9 (n=1, 7%), HYDIN (n=1, 7%), DNAH1 (n=1, 7%), and ARMC4 (n=1, 7%). Although not statistically significant, it was found that the diagnosis age was lower and the BMI Z-score was lower in CCDC40 mutations. Growth parametres were normal in DNAH5, DNAH11, RSPH4A and ARMC4 pathogenic variants. No significant correlation was found between genetic analysis and clinical features, culture reproduction and pulmonary function tests of the patients. Conclusion: It is thought that more detailed information about the possible clinical features and prognosis of the disease can be obtained by genetic examinations of PCD. However, clinical trials with higher patient numbers are still needed.

The Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia Computed Tomography Score in Adults with Bronchiectasis: A Derivation und Validation Study. Respiration 2021; 100:499-509. [PMID: 33895745 PMCID: PMC8220914 DOI: 10.1159/000514927] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/25/2020] [Accepted: 01/07/2021] [Indexed: 12/23/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) is a rare genetic disorder which requires a complex diagnostic workup. Thus, an easy and widely available screening method would be helpful to identify patients who need a further diagnostic workup for PCD. OBJECTIVES The aim of the study was to develop and validate a computed tomography (CT) score for PCD to facilitate etiological diagnosis in adults with bronchiectasis. METHOD Chest CTs from 121 adults with bronchiectasis were scored for bronchiectasis morphology, distribution, and associated findings. Patients with and without the etiological diagnosis of PCD (46 and 75, respectively) were compared. Significantly, different imaging findings (p < 0.05) in univariate analysis were considered for multivariate analysis. Distinct findings were used to build the score. Based on this score, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was performed. The score was validated with 2 independent cohorts, another cohort from the same institution with 56 patients (28 with PCD) and an external cohort from another referral center with 172 patients (86 with PCD). RESULTS The following parameters predicted PCD in adults with bronchiectasis and were included in the score with weighting according to their regression coefficients: 2 points were given for predominance in the middle/lower lobe, 2 points for tree-in-bud pattern, 2 points for atelectasis or prior resection of a middle/lower lobe, and 3 points for absence of emphysema and fibrosis. Situs inversus was only observed in subjects with PCD (Kartagener syndrome) and, thus, was not used in the primary ciliary dyskinesia computed tomography (PCD-CT) score as group comparisons could not be performed. ROC curve analysis revealed an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.90 (95% CI 0.85-0.96). Youden index was the highest at a threshold of >6 with a sensitivity of 83% and a specificity of 83%. In the validation cohorts, ROC curve analysis confirmed the performance of the score with an AUC of 0.83 (95% CI 0.72-0.94) in the first validation cohort and 0.79 (95% CI 0.73-0.86) in the external validation cohort. CONCLUSIONS The PCD-CT score provides the first validated CT score for PCD and helps physicians in identifying adult bronchiectasis patients who require further diagnostic workup. Key message: The PCD-CT score provides the first validated CT score to assist physicians in identifying adult bronchiectasis patients who require a further diagnostic workup for PCD. It potentially improves earlier recognition of this rare and underdiagnosed disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Lung clearance index (LCI) is a promising lung function outcome in individuals with primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD). The impact of events clinically important for individuals with PCD, such as pulmonary exacerbations, on LCI is unknown. METHODS We conducted an international, multicentre, observational cohort study to assess the association of LCI and risk of pulmonary exacerbation, specific changes in LCI during pulmonary exacerbation and global variability of LCI across four visits every 4 months. Ninety individuals with PCD, aged 3-41 years, underwent nitrogen multiple-breath washout (MBW) and spirometry measurements. The association of LCI and pulmonary exacerbations was assessed by Cox proportional hazards and random-effects regression models. RESULTS We obtained 430 MBW and 427 spirometry measurements. In total, 379 person-years at risk contributed to the analysis. Per one unit increase (deterioration) in LCI, the risk of future pulmonary exacerbation increased by 13%: HR (95% CI), 1.13 (1.04 to 1.23). If LCI changed from a range of values considered normal to abnormal, the risk of future pulmonary exacerbations increased by 87%: 1.87 (1.08 to 3.23). During pulmonary exacerbations, LCI increased by 1.22 units (14.5%). After pulmonary exacerbations, LCI tended to decline. Estimates of variability in LCI suggested lower variation within individuals compared with variation between individuals. Findings were comparable for forced expiratory volume in 1 s. CONCLUSION On a visit-to-visit basis, LCI measurement may add to the prediction of pulmonary exacerbations, the assessment of lung function decline and the potential lung function response to treatment of pulmonary exacerbations.

Abstract
Motile cilia are highly complex hair-like organelles of epithelial cells lining the surface of various organ systems. Genetic mutations (usually with autosomal recessive inheritance) that impair ciliary beating cause a variety of motile ciliopathies, a heterogeneous group of rare disorders. The pathogenetic mechanisms, clinical symptoms and severity of the disease depend on the specific affected genes and the tissues in which they are expressed. Defects in the ependymal cilia can result in hydrocephalus, defects in the cilia in the fallopian tubes or in sperm flagella can cause female and male subfertility, respectively, and malfunctional motile monocilia of the left-right organizer during early embryonic development can lead to laterality defects such as situs inversus and heterotaxy. If mucociliary clearance in the respiratory epithelium is severely impaired, the disorder is referred to as primary ciliary dyskinesia, the most common motile ciliopathy. No single test can confirm a diagnosis of motile ciliopathy, which is based on a combination of tests including nasal nitric oxide measurement, transmission electron microscopy, immunofluorescence and genetic analyses, and high-speed video microscopy. With the exception of azithromycin, there is no evidence-based treatment for primary ciliary dyskinesia; therapies aim at relieving symptoms and reducing the effects of reduced ciliary motility.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE In England, the National Health Service commissioned a National Management Service for children with primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD). The aims of this study were to describe the health of children seen in this Service and compare lung function to children with cystic fibrosis (CF). DESIGN Multi-centre service evaluation of the English National Management PCD Service. SETTING Four nationally commissioned PCD centres in England. PATIENTS 333 children with PCD reviewed in the Service in 2015; lung function data were also compared with 2970 children with CF. RESULTS Median age at diagnosis for PCD was 2.6 years, significantly lower in children with situs inversus (1.0 vs 6.0 years, p<0.001). Compared with national data from the CF Registry, mean (SD) %predicted forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1) was 76.8% in PCD (n=240) and 85.0% in CF, and FEV1 was lower in children with PCD up to the age of 15 years. Approximately half of children had some hearing impairment, with 26% requiring hearing aids. Children with a lower body mass index (BMI) had lower FEV1 (p<0.001). One-third of children had positive respiratory cultures at review, 54% of these grew Haemophilus influenzae. CONCLUSIONS We provide evidence that children with PCD in England have worse lung function than those with CF. Nutritional status should be considered in PCD management, as those with a lower BMI have significantly lower FEV1. Hearing impairment is common but seems to improve with age. Well-designed and powered randomised controlled trials on management of PCD are needed to inform best clinical practice.

Abstract
Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) is an inherited ciliopathy leading to chronic suppurative lung disease, chronic rhinosinusitis, middle ear disease, sub-fertility and situs abnormalities. As PCD is rare, it is important that scientists and clinicians foster international collaborations to share expertise in order to provide the best possible diagnostic and management strategies. 'Better Experimental Approaches to Treat Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia' (BEAT-PCD) is a multidisciplinary network funded by EU COST Action (BM1407) to coordinate innovative basic science and clinical research from across the world to drive advances in the field. The fourth and final BEAT-PCD Conference and fifth PCD Training School were held jointly in March 2019 in Poznan, Poland. The varied program of plenaries, workshops, break-out sessions, oral and poster presentations were aimed to enhance the knowledge and skills of delegates, whilst also providing a collaborative platform to exchange ideas. In this final BEAT-PCD conference we were able to build upon programmes developed throughout the lifetime of the COST Action. These proceedings report on the conference, highlighting some of the successes of the BEAT-PCD programme.

Abstract
Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) is a rare inherited disease characterised by malfunctioning cilia leading to a heterogeneous clinical phenotype with many organ systems affected. There is a lack of data on clinical presentation, prognosis and effectiveness of treatments, making it mandatory to improve the scientific evidence base. This article reviews the data resources that are available in Europe for clinical and epidemiological research in PCD, namely established national PCD registries and national cohort studies, plus two large collaborative efforts (the international PCD (iPCD) Cohort and the International PCD Registry), and discusses their strengths, limitations and perspectives. Denmark, Cyprus, Norway and Switzerland have national population-based registries, while England and France conduct multicentre cohort studies. Based on the data contained in these registries, the prevalence of diagnosed PCD is 3–7 per 100 000 in children and 0.2–6 per 100 000 in adults. All registries, together with other studies from Europe and beyond, contribute to the iPCD Cohort, a collaborative study including data from over 4000 PCD patients, and to the International PCD Registry, which is part of the ERN (European Reference Network)-LUNG network. This rich resource of readily available, standardised and contemporaneous data will allow obtaining fast answers to emerging clinical and research questions in PCD. The growing collaborative network of national and international registries and cohort studies of patients with PCD provides an excellent resource for research on this rare diseasehttps://bit.ly/3dto75l

Abstract
Clinical data on primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) are limited, heterogeneous and mostly derived from retrospective chart reviews, leading to missing data and unreliable symptoms and results of physical examinations. We need standardised prospective data collection to study phenotypes, severity and prognosis and improve standards of care. A large, international and multidisciplinary group of PCD experts developed FOLLOW-PCD, a standardised clinical PCD form and patient questionnaire. We identified existing forms for clinical data collection via the Better Experimental Approaches to Treat PCD (BEAT-PCD) COST Action network and a literature review. We selected and revised the content items with the working group and patient representatives. We then revised several drafts in an adapted Delphi process, refining the content and structure. FOLLOW-PCD has a modular structure, to allow flexible use based on local practice and research focus. It includes patient-completed versions for the modules on symptoms and lifestyle. The form allows a comprehensive standardised clinical assessment at baseline and for annual reviews and a short documentation for routine follow-up. It can either be completed using printable paper forms or using an online REDCap database. Data collected in FOLLOW-PCD version 1.0 is available in real-time for national and international monitoring and research. The form will be adapted in the future after extensive piloting in different settings and we encourage the translation of the patient questionnaires to multiple languages. FOLLOW-PCD will facilitate quality research based on prospective standardised data from routine care, which can be pooled between centres, to provide first-line and real-time evidence for clinical decision-making. Standardised follow-up of PCD patients enables quality research with real-time data from routine care, providing evidence for clinical decision-makinghttp://bit.ly/2PDfISF

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) is a rare and genetically heterogeneous disease and the severity of the disease related with genetic analysis has been described in some previous studies. The main aim of our study was to describe the clinical characteristics and laboratory findings of patients with genetically diagnosed PCD and to investigate the correlation between clinical, radiologic, and laboratory findings and genetic analyses of these patients. METHOD This is a cohort study in which we analyzed the clinical characteristics, laboratory findings, and genetic results of 46 patients with genetically diagnosed PCD through whole-exome sequencing at our single center from a total of 265 patients with PCD within a 5-year period. RESULTS Genetic analysis revealed pathogenic variants in DNAH5 (n = 12 individuals, 12 families), CCDC40 (n = 9 individuals, six families), RSPH4A (n = 5 individuals, three families), DNAH11 (n = 4 individuals, four families), HYDIN (n = 5 individuals, five families), CCNO (n = 4 individuals, four families), DNAI1 (n = 2 individuals, one family), ARMC4 (n = 2 individuals, two families), TTC25 (n = 1), DNAH1 (n = 1), and CCDC39 (n = 1) genes. Although not statistically significant, the age at diagnosis was lower (median: 3 years; range, 6 months-4 years) in patients with CCNO pathogenic variants due to the early reporting of symptoms, and the median body mass index (BMI) and BMI z scores were lower in patients at 18.7 and 16 kg/m2 , and -0.78 and -1.2 with CCDC40 and CCNO pathogenic variants, respectively. The median forced expiratory flow in 1 second (FEV1%), forced vital capacity (FVC%), and forced expiratory flow (FEF)25-75% were 53%, 64%, and 28%, respectively; these parameters were also lower in the CCDC40 group than in the other groups. There was no significant correlation between the genetic results and symptoms, radiologic findings, and microbiologic data of patients with PCD. CONCLUSION In PCD, there was significant heterogeneity of lung disease, patients who had pathogenic variants in CCNO presented earlier, and those with CCDC40 and CCNO had worse lung disease, and poorer nutritional status compared with the other subgroups. We hope that whole genotype-phenotype and clinical relationships will be identified in PCD.

Abstract
Severe asthenozoospermia is a common cause of male infertility. Recent studies have revealed that SPEF2 mutations lead to multiple morphological abnormalities of the sperm flagella (MMAF) without primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) symptoms in males, but PCD phenotype was also found in one female individual. Therefore, whether there is a phenotypic continuum ranging from infertile patients with PCD to MMAF patients with no or low noise PCD manifestations remains elusive. Here, we performed whole-exome sequencing in 47 patients with severe asthenozoospermia from 45 unrelated Chinese families. We identified four novel biallelic mutations in SPEF2 (8.9%, 4/45) in six affected individuals (12.8%, 6/47), while no deleterious biallelic variants in SPEF2 were detected in 637 controls, including 219 with oligoasthenospermia, 195 with non-obstructive azoospermia, and 223 fertile controls. Notably, all six patients exhibited PCD-like symptoms, including recurrent airway infections, bronchitis, and rhinosinusitis. Ultrastructural analysis revealed normal 9 + 2 axonemes of respiratory cilia but consistently abnormal 9 + 0 axoneme or disordered accessory structures of sperm flagella, indicating different roles of SPEF2 in sperm flagella and respiratory cilia. Subsequently, a Spef2 knockout mouse model was used to validate the PCD-like phenotype and male infertility, where the subfertility of female Spef2-/- mice was found unexpectedly. Overall, our data bridge the link between MMAF and PCD based on the association of SPEF2 mutations with both infertility and PCD in males and provide basis for further exploring the molecular mechanism of SPEF2 during spermiogenesis and ciliogenesis.

Abstract
Primary ciliary dyskinesia is a genetically and clinically heterogeneous syndrome. Impaired function of motile cilia causes failure of mucociliary clearance. Patients typically present with neonatal respiratory distress of unknown cause and then continue to have a daily wet cough, recurrent chest infections, perennial rhinosinusitis, otitis media with effusion, and bronchiectasis. Approximately 50% of patients have situs inversus, and infertility is common. While understanding of the underlying genetics and disease mechanisms have substantially advanced in recent years, there remains a paucity of evidence for treatment. Next-generation sequencing has increased gene discovery, and mutations in more than 40 genes have been reported to cause primary ciliary dyskinesia, with many other genes likely to be discovered. Increased knowledge of cilia genes is challenging perceptions of the clinical phenotype, as some genes reported in the last 5 years are associated with mild respiratory disease. Developments in genomics and molecular medicine are rapidly improving diagnosis, and a genetic cause can be identified in approximately 70% of patients known to have primary ciliary dyskinesia. Groups are now investigating novel and personalised treatments, although gene therapies are unlikely to be available in the near future.

Prevalence and course of disease after lung resection in primary ciliary dyskinesia: a cohort & nested case-control study. Respir Res 2019; 20:212. [PMID: 31533829 PMCID: PMC6751891 DOI: 10.1186/s12931-019-1183-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 17] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/25/2019] [Accepted: 09/10/2019] [Indexed: 12/22/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Lung resection is a controversial and understudied therapeutic modality in Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia (PCD). We assessed the prevalence of lung resection in PCD across countries and compared disease course in lobectomised and non-lobectomised patients. Methods In the international iPCD cohort, we identified lobectomised and non-lobectomised age and sex-matched PCD patients and compared their characteristics, lung function and BMI cross-sectionally and longitudinally. Results Among 2896 patients in the iPCD cohort, 163 from 20 centers (15 countries) underwent lung resection (5.6%). Among adult patients, prevalence of lung resection was 8.9%, demonstrating wide variation among countries. Compared to the rest of the iPCD cohort, lobectomised patients were more often females, older at diagnosis, and more often had situs solitus. In about half of the cases (45.6%) lung resection was performed before presentation to specialized PCD centers for diagnostic work-up. Compared to controls (n = 197), lobectomised patients had lower FVC z-scores (− 2.41 vs − 1.35, p = 0.0001) and FEV1 z-scores (− 2.79 vs − 1.99, p = 0.003) at their first post-lung resection assessment. After surgery, lung function continued to decline at a faster rate in lobectomised patients compared to controls (FVC z-score slope: − 0.037/year Vs − 0.009/year, p = 0.047 and FEV1 z-score slope: − 0.052/year Vs − 0.033/year, p = 0.235), although difference did not reach statistical significance for FEV1. Within cases, females and patients with multiple lobe resections had lower lung function. Conclusions Prevalence of lung resection in PCD varies widely between countries, is often performed before PCD diagnosis and overall is more frequent in patients with delayed diagnosis. After lung resection, compared to controls most lobectomised patients have poorer and continuing decline of lung function despite lung resection. Further studies benefiting from prospective data collection are needed to confirm these findings.

Abstract
Pulmonary exacerbations are a cause of significant morbidity in patients with primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) and are frequently used as an outcome measure in clinical research into chronic lung diseases. So far, there has been no consensus on the definition of pulmonary exacerbations in PCD. 30 multidisciplinary experts and patients developed a consensus definition for children and adults with PCD. Following a systematic review, the panel used a modified Delphi process with a combination of face-to-face meetings and e-surveys to develop a definition that can be used in research settings for children and adults with PCD. A pulmonary exacerbation was defined by the presence of three or more of the following seven items: 1) increased cough, 2) change in sputum volume and/or colour, 3) increased shortness of breath perceived by the patient or parent, 4) decision to start or change antibiotic treatment because of perceived pulmonary symptoms, 5) malaise, tiredness, fatigue or lethargy, 6) new or increased haemoptysis, and 7) temperature >38°C. The consensus panel proposed that the definition should be used for future clinical trials. The definition should be validated and the usability assessed during these studies.

Abstract
RATIONALE In primary ciliary dyskinesia, factors leading to disease heterogeneity are poorly understood. OBJECTIVES To describe early lung disease progression in primary ciliary dyskinesia and identify associations between ultrastructural defects and genotypes with clinical phenotype. METHODS This was a prospective, longitudinal (5 yr), multicenter, observational study. Inclusion criteria were less than 19 years at enrollment and greater than or equal to two annual study visits. Linear mixed effects models including random slope and random intercept were used to evaluate longitudinal associations between the ciliary defect group (or genotype group) and clinical features (percent predicted FEV1 and weight and height z-scores). MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS A total of 137 participants completed 732 visits. The group with absent inner dynein arm, central apparatus defects, and microtubular disorganization (IDA/CA/MTD) (n = 41) were significantly younger at diagnosis and in mixed effects models had significantly lower percent predicted FEV1 and weight and height z-scores than the isolated outer dynein arm defect (n = 55) group. Participants with CCDC39 or CCDC40 mutations (n = 34) had lower percent predicted FEV1 and weight and height z-scores than those with DNAH5 mutations (n = 36). For the entire cohort, percent predicted FEV1 decline was heterogeneous with a mean (SE) decline of 0.57 (0.25) percent predicted/yr. Rate of decline was different from zero only in the IDA/MTD/CA group (mean [SE], -1.11 [0.48] percent predicted/yr; P = 0.02). CONCLUSIONS Participants with IDA/MTD/CA defects, which included individuals with CCDC39 or CCDC40 mutations, had worse lung function and growth indices compared with those with outer dynein arm defects and DNAH5 mutations, respectively. The only group with a significant lung function decline over time were participants with IDA/MTD/CA defects.

Abstract
Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) is a rare, hereditary, multiorgan disease caused by defects in the structure and function of motile cilia. It results in a wide range of clinical manifestations, most commonly in the upper and lower airways. Central data collection in national and international registries is essential to studying the epidemiology of rare diseases and filling in gaps in knowledge of diseases such as PCD. For this reason, the Swiss Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia Registry (CH-PCD) was founded in 2013 as a collaborative project between epidemiologists and adult and paediatric pulmonologists. We describe the objectives and methodology of the CH-PCD, present initial results, and give an overview of current and ongoing projects.
The registry records patients of any age, suffering from PCD, who are treated and resident in Switzerland. It collects information from patients identified through physicians, diagnostic facilities and patient organisations. The registry dataset contains data on diagnostic evaluations, lung function, microbiology and imaging, symptoms, treatments and hospitalisations.
By May 2018, CH-PCD has contacted 566 physicians of different specialties and identified 134 patients with PCD. At present, this number represents an overall 1 in 63,000 prevalence of people diagnosed with PCD in Switzerland. Prevalence differs by age and region; it is highest in children and adults younger than 30 years, and in Espace Mittelland. The median age of patients in the registry is 25 years (range 5–73), and 41 patients have a definite PCD diagnosis based on recent international guidelines. Data from CH-PCD are contributed to international collaborative studies and the registry facilitates patient identification for nested studies.
CH-PCD has proven to be a valuable research tool that already has highlighted weaknesses in PCD clinical practice in Switzerland.

Abstract
Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) is a chronic suppurative airways disease that is usually recessively inherited and has marked clinical phenotypic heterogeneity. Classic symptoms include neonatal respiratory distress, chronic rhinitis since early childhood, chronic otitis media, recurrent airway infections leading to bronchiectasis, chronic sinusitis, laterality defects with and without congenital heart disease including abnormal situs in approximately 50% of the cases, and male infertility. Lung function deteriorates progressively from childhood throughout life. 'Better Experimental Approaches to Treat Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia' (BEAT-PCD) is a network of scientists and clinicians coordinating research from basic science through to clinical care with the intention of developing treatments and diagnostics that lead to improved long-term outcomes for patients. BEAT-PCD activities are supported by EU funded COST Action (BM1407). The third BEAT-PCD conference and fourth PCD training school were held jointly in February 2018 in Lisbon, Portugal. Presentations and workshops focussed on advancing the knowledge and skills relating to PCD in: basic science, epidemiology, diagnostic testing, clinical management and clinical trials. The multidisciplinary conference provided an interactive platform for exchanging ideas through a program of lectures, poster presentations, breakout sessions and workshops. Three working groups met to plan consensus statements. Progress with BEAT-PCD projects was shared and new collaborations were fostered. In this report, we summarize the meeting, highlighting developments made during the meeting.

Abstract
Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) can manifest in the neonatal period with severe respiratory distress. We describe a child with PCD who presented at term with severe neonatal respiratory distress, persistent right upper lobe collapse and failure to thrive who underwent lobectomy prior to the diagnosis of PCD at the age of 3 years. This case report illustrates the severe spectrum of lung disease associated with coiled-coil domain containing protein 40 (CCDC40) gene variants in patients with PCD.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) is a rare, heterogeneous genetic disorder where impaired mucociliary clearance is caused by dysfunctional motile cilia leading to bronchiectasis. There is limited evidence characterising the nutritional status of children with PCD, although lower body mass index (BMI) z-score has been associated with worse lung function (FEV1). METHODS All children (n = 43) with PCD, aged <16 years, from a single tertiary centre were prospectively enrolled. Information on clinical phenotype and nutritional status including bioelectrical impedance spectroscopy (BIS) phase-angle was collected. RESULTS There was a weak positive association between height-for-age z-score (HAZ) and FEV1 z-score (n = 28, r = 0.4, p = 0.049). Those with a low fat free mass index (<-2 z scores) had a lower BMI z score (-1.3 ± 1.2 vs. 0.8 ± 0.7, p = 0.0002). BIS phase angle identified more patients at nutritional risk than using moderate malnutrition cut-offs of either HAZ or BMI ≤ -2 z scores alone (21% vs. 4.6% vs. 6.9% respectively). PCD patients had a higher incidence of vitamin D insufficiency (<50 nmoL/L) (54%) and deficiency (<30 nmoL/L) (26%) than healthy children. CONCLUSIONS We have characterised the nutritional phenotype of a cohort of children with PCD. Monitoring vitamin D levels is important in PCD patients. There is a weak association between lung function and nutritional status, and measures of BIS phase-angle. The use of BIS phase-angle may allow for early identification of at risk children and may therefore be of benefit for nutritional assessments in the clinical setting. These findings will help inform a future nutritional intervention strategy in children with PCD.

Abstract
Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) has been considered a relatively mild disease, especially compared to cystic fibrosis (CF), but studies on lung function in PCD patients have been few and small.This study compared lung function from spirometry of PCD patients to normal reference values and to published data from CF patients. We calculated z-scores and % predicted values for forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1) and forced vital capacity (FVC) using the Global Lung Function Initiative 2012 values for 991 patients from the international PCD Cohort. We then assessed associations with age, sex, country, diagnostic certainty, organ laterality, body mass index and age at diagnosis in linear regression models. Lung function in PCD patients was reduced compared to reference values in both sexes and all age groups. Children aged 6-9 years had the smallest impairment (FEV1 z-score -0.84 (-1.03 to -0.65), FVC z-score -0.31 (-0.51 to -0.11)). Compared to CF patients, FEV1 was similarly reduced in children (age 6-9 years PCD 91% (88-93%); CF 90% (88-91%)), but less impaired in young adults (age 18-21 years PCD 79% (76-82%); CF 66% (65-68%)). The results suggest that PCD affects lung function from early in life, which emphasises the importance of early standardised care for all patients.

Reduced anaerobic and aerobic performance in children with primary ciliary dyskinesia. Eur J Pediatr 2018; 177:765-773. [PMID: 29487997 DOI: 10.1007/s00431-018-3121-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/06/2017] [Revised: 02/13/2018] [Accepted: 02/14/2018] [Indexed: 10/17/2022]
Abstract
UNLABELLED Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) restricts lifestyle and increases morbidity. The aim of the study was to investigate anaerobic and aerobic performance in children with PCD and their healthy counterparts. Thirty-one children with PCD and 29 age- and sex-matched healthy subjects were studied. Pulmonary function, hand grip strength (HGS), quadriceps strength (QMS), physical activity, anaerobic capacity (muscle power sprint test), and aerobic performance (modified shuttle walk test (MSWT)) were determined. Pulmonary function, HGS, QMS, mean anaerobic power (MAP), and MSWT distance in PCD were significantly lower than those of healthy subjects (p < 0.05). In PCD, the MAP was significantly correlated with age, FEV1, and the mean kcal for 3 days (p < 0.05), and age was its independent predictor (p < 0.05). The MSWT distance was significantly related to gender and weight (p < 0.05), and gender was selected as its independent predictor (p < 0.05). In healthy controls, the MAP was significantly associated with age, gender, FVC, FEV1, HGS, QMS, and the mean kcal for three days (p < 0.05). The MSWT distance was significantly related to weight and body mass index in healthy group (p < 0.05). CONCLUSION Anaerobic and aerobic performance is impaired in PCD from the early stages. Age determines anaerobic performance. Gender is the determinant of aerobic performance. Whether skeletal muscle characteristics and sex-related changes in body composition affect anaerobic and aerobic capacity in PCD children warrants further study. What is Known: • Exercise performance is determined by anaerobic and aerobic power. • Few studies have shown that PCD patients have lower aerobic performance which is associated with impaired lung function. What is New: • The present research indicated that both anaerobic and aerobic exercise capacity determined using field testing is impaired in PCD from the early stages. • Anaerobic capacity was found to be independently associated with age in PCD. Higher aerobic performance is independently associated with male gender.

Abstract
Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) is a rare heterogenous condition that causes progressive suppurative lung disease, chronic rhinosinusitis, chronic otitis media, infertility and abnormal situs. 'Better Experimental Approaches to Treat Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia' (BEAT-PCD) is a network of scientists and clinicians coordinating research from basic science through to clinical care with the intention of developing treatments and diagnostics that lead to improved long-term outcomes for patients. BEAT-PCD activities are supported by EU funded COST Action (BM1407). The second BEAT-PCD conference, and third PCD training school were held jointly in April 2017 in Valencia, Spain. Presentations and workshops focussed on advancing the knowledge and skills relating to PCD in: basic science, epidemiology, diagnostic testing, clinical management and clinical trials. The multidisciplinary conference provided an interactive platform for exchanging ideas through a program of lectures, poster presentations, breakout sessions and workshops. Three working groups met to plan consensus statements. Progress with BEAT-PCD projects was shared and new collaborations were fostered. In this report, we summarize the meeting, highlighting developments made during the meeting.
