a

IQR is used for calculating the estimate and SE. Association analysis in the LSC was conducted based on longitudinal spirometry data using linear mixed effects model with adjustment for important covariates.

b

P<0.0001.

Abbreviations: FEV1, forced expiratory volume in 1 s; FVC, forced vital capacity; LSC, Lovelace Smokers cohort; SE, standard error; IQR, interquartile range.
