Table 1 Number of patients with complete data at baseline and 6 months for each indicated measurement

	Baseline	6-month follow-up	Both
Body mass index (kg/m²)	76	70	70
FEV1 (% predicted)	76	70	70
Reported activity (hours per week)	71	68	64
Measured MVPA (hours/week)	70	54	53
Mucle power (W/kg)	74	70	68
Wmax (% predicted)	76	69	69
VO₂ peak (% predicted)	73	69	66
Quality of life*	76	70	70

FEV1 – forced expiratory volume in 1 second; MVPA – moderate-and-vigorous physical activity; Wmax – maximal aerobic power; VO2peak – peak oxygen uptake. *for the scale role limitations only 66 patients provided data at baseline, 59 at the 6-months follow-up and 52 had complete data at both time points to calculate changes.
