Pre- and post-bronchodilator lung function and shuttle walk results
| CAL subjects* | Control subjects | |||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Pre-bronchodilator | Post-bronchodilator | Change (%) | Pre-bronchodilator | Post-bronchodilator | Change (%) | |
| All values shown are mean (SE). SWT = shuttle walking test; 95% CI = 95% confidence interval. | ||||||
| *Using paired sample t test, all results for CAL subjects pre- and post-bronchodilator are significantly different (p<0.01). | ||||||
