Within each demographic variable, the rows sum to 100% of the population with available data.

Demographic survey responses were not required fields. Some respondents chose not to answer these questions and therefore, demographic categories do not always add up the total number of survey responses due to missing data. Data specifically refers to the characteristics of the PwCF regardless of whether the respondent was an adult with CF or a parent of a child with CF.
