Correlation (Spearman's rho) between CT densitometry and baseline IL-8

All patients (n = 38) Excluding tubular bronchiectasis (n = 31)
UZ Perc15 rs = -0.464 (p = 0.005) rs = -0.558 (p ≤ 0.001)
UZ VI -950HU rs = 0.447 (p = 0.005) rs = 0.591 (p ≤ 0.001)
LZ Perc15 rs = -0.447 (p = 0.005) rs = -0.454 (p = 0.005)
LZ VI -950HU rs = 0.353 (p ≤ 0.02) rs = 0.401 (p ≤ 0.02)

UZ = upper zone, LZ = lower zone, VI = voxel index, Perc15 = 15th percentile point, HU = Hounsfield Units.
