  • * When a variable was not normally distributed, median (95% CI) is shown instead.

  • Avg, average; FEV1, forced expiratory volume in one second; FRC, functional residual capacity; FVC, forced vital capacity; LCI, lung clearance index; MBW, multiple breath washout; RV, residual volume; SBW, single breath washout; Scond, Sacin, multiple breath washout index of conductive and acinar ventilation heterogeneity; SnIII_FRC, SnIII_RV, normalised phase III slope of a single breath washout maneuver starting from functional residual capacity or residual volume; SIII_RV, unnormalised phase III slope of a single breath washout maneuver starting from residual volume.
