Fig. 2 A. Representation of time taken to be tested for relatives.
Time taken to be tested represents the difference between the date of testing and the date of family mutation identification (or the date at adulthood (18years) for relatives who were minor when the mutation was identified). B. Representation of age of relatives at testing. It should be noted that testing was performed before the age of 18years in 21 relatives, either because CF was suspected in siblings, or because testing was performed before the 1994 French Bioethics Laws that govern genetic testing management and prohibit testing of minor children.
