Spirometry in SCD patients and controls
| GLI conversions* | SCD (n=50) | Controls (n=50) | p Value |
|---|---|---|---|
| zFEV1 | −1.10 (−1.38 to −0.82) | −0.62 (−1.14 to −0.11) | 0.002 |
| zFVC | −0.62 (−0.98 to −0.26) | −0.56 (−0.94 to −0.19) | 0.098 |
| zFEV1/FVC | −0.95 (−1.31 to −0.58) | −0.13 (−0.56 to 0.29) | 0.003 |
