IL-17+ cell counts in pediatric endobronchial biopsies. IL-17+ cell counts are significantly different across disease groups (Kruskal-Wallis P = 0.01) with patients with established cystic fibrosis (CF) and non-CF bronchiectasis having numbers significantly higher (P < 0.01 for both) than control subjects. IL-17+ cell counts in the patients newly diagnosed with CF are also significantly higher (P < 0.05) than control subjects. The four light green dots in the newly diagnosed CF group represent the four patients who were diagnosed on newborn screening.
