Definition of abbreviations: BMI = body mass index; CA = central apparatus; EM = electron micrographs; IDA = inner dynein arm; MTD = microtubular disorganization; ODA = outer dynein arm.

*

Includes oligocilia (n = 4) and central apparatus defect (n = 5).

Baseline spirometry available from 92 participants; others were too young to perform spirometry at enrollment.

P < 0.05 for comparison with ODA defect group.
