Comparison of two groups of patients, a group with flagellin concentrations lower than 10 ng/100 μg proteins (20 patients), and a group with flagellin concentrations higher than 10 ng/100 μg proteins (11 patients).

FEV1 (% pred.) and FCV (% pred.) are forced expiratory volume in one second and forced vital capacity (expressed as percentage of the predicted value), respectively.
