FVC % predicted | 0.3009 | 0.495 | 0.1941 | 0.59 |
FEV1 % predicted | 0.1541 | 0.17036 | 0.01626 | 0.96 |
FEV1/FVC % | -0.08721 | -0.34021 | -0.253 | 0.31 |
TLC % predicted | -0.2773 | 0.2937 | 0.571 | 0.007 |
RV % predicted | -0.1221 | 0.5781 | 0.7002 | 0.29 |
For each lung function parameter, the percent of change from baseline was used as dependent variable in the linear mixed-effects model. FVC = forced vital capacity; FEV1 = forced expiratory volume in one second; TLC = total lung capacity; RV = residual volume; PT = physical therapy.
