Correlation analysis of spirometry data with constant a
| Variable vs. constant a | All (n = 17) | Men (n = 8) | Women (n = 9) |
|---|---|---|---|
| FVC | −0.54* | NS | NS |
| FEV1.0 | −0.59* | NS | −0.69* |
| FEV1.0/FVC | −0.49* | NS | −0.62 |
| PEF | −0.68* | NS | −0.76* |
Definitions of abbreviations: FVC, forced vital capacity; FEV1.0, forced expiratory volume in 1 s; FEV1.0/FVC, forced expiratory volume in 1 s/forced vital capacity; PEF, peak expiratory flow. NS, non-significant correlation (P > 0.05).
Statistically significant correlation (P < 0.05).
