Fig. 1From: Early-life exposure to humidifier disinfectant determines the prognosis of lung function in childrenLongitudinal assessment of spirometry and DLco in HDLI survivors compared with control. Figures show the mean changes in FVC (a), FEV1 (b), FEV1/FVC (c), and corrected DLco (d) in the follow-up period, presented as the percent of the predicted values for HDLI survivors compared to controls. Controls were compared with age- and sex-matched HDLI children both at the 1st and 5th follow-up. P-values were calculated for the comparisons between groups for each sex using the Kruskall-Wallis test. Pred, predicted; FVC, forced vital capacity; FEV1, forced expiratory volume in 1 sec; Cor., corrected; DLco, carbon monoxide diffusion capacity; b, boy; g, girlBack to article page
