(*) Values in bold are mean residuals for FEV1, FVC and FEV1/FVC adjusted for differences in age, height, sex, and smoking history.

(**) Values stratified by smoking history are mean residuals adjusted for differences in age, height, and sex.

CI: Confidence interval. LL: lower limit; HL: higher limit.
