PCs, principal components; R5, resistance at 5 Hz (total respiratory resistance); R5–R20, frequency dependence of Rrs (R5 minus R20, peripheral respiratory resistance); R20, resistance at 20 Hz (central respiratory resistance); X5, reactance at 5 Hz (peripheral reactance); AX, area under the reactance curve below resonant frequency; Fres, resonant frequency. *22 covariates include age, sex, height, BMI, 11 spirometry variables (FEV1, ΔFEV1, %prΔFEV1, FVC, ΔFVC, %prΔFVC, FEV1/FVC, PEF, FEF50%, FEF25–75%, FEF75%), and seven lung volume measures (TLC, RV, RV/TLC, FRC, ERV, IC, IC/TLC). False discovery rates were calculated within each adjustment group to account for six tests performed.
