Circumcision surgery involves the removal of the skin that covers the tip of the penis, called the foreskin. This procedure is usually performed on a newborn boy before he leaves the hospital, and often within the first 2 days of life. Most scientists agree that the surgery confers some protection against infection and the risk of contracting sexual diseases.

olga2289 [7]
Cystic fibrosis is a genetic disorder that causes severe problems mainly on the respiratory system, but also on other organs such as the pancreas or the liver. It is an autosomal recessive disorder, meaning that an individual needs to inherit one copy of the gene from each parent in order to have the disease. The disorder is caused by a mutation in the gene that encodes the protein that participates in the transport salt intracellularly. This mutation causes a defect in the production of mucus, sweat and digestive fluid. In patients suffering from cystic fibrosis, these bodily fluids and the mucus are sticky and thick. This change in consistency causes severe damage to the respiratory and digestive systems.
