Values of FEV1 and FVC shown for the comparison population are adjusted means (with standard errors). All others are least-square mean differences (with 95% CIs) from the mean values of the comparison population (managerial and administrative support occupations), adjusted for age, age squared, height, height squared, history of asthma, pack-years, race, smoking status, and study center.
