Table 3. Kappa coefficients between gas exchange indices in sarcoidosis.

Variable Kappa coefficient 95% CI P
DLco/∆SpO2-6MWT 0.21 0.08–0.33 0.002
DLco/peak AaDO2 0.42 0.27–0.57 0.0003
∆SpO2-6MWT/peak AaDO2 0.27 0.15–0.42 0.002

6MWT, 6-minute walk test; ∆SpO2-6MWT, oxygen desaturation during the 6MWT; AaDO2, alveolar-to-arterial oxygen pressure difference; DLco, diffusing capacity of the lung for carbon monoxide.
