Pressure-Flow Relationships by Sex
| Parameter | Females | Males | P values |
|---|---|---|---|
| SPF, mL·s−1·cm H2O−1 | 5.9 (−7.2, 31.5) | 11.0 (−1.2, 64.3) | 0.005* |
| Pcrit, cm h2o | −25.0 (−25.0, −5.7) | −23.5 (−25.0, −2.8) | 0.352 |
Data are presented as median (range). SPF refers to the slope of the pressure-flow relationship; Pcrit, critical closing pressure.
P value is significant.
