Definition of abbreviations: CLAD = chronic lung allograft dysfunction, CT = computed tomography scan, BOS = bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome, RAS = restrictive allograft syndrome, U-CLAD = undefined CLAD phenotype
Assessed during CLAD onset period (i.e. first 3 months after CLAD onset)
Defined as FEV1/FVC ratio of ≤70%; for single lung transplant recipients obstruction was defined as a decline in FEV1/FVC ratio relative to the ratio of their baseline FEV1 and FVC values.
Defined as TLC ≤90% post-transplant baseline; when TLC information was not available, decline in FVC ≤80% of post-transplant baseline was used.
CT scan opacities were defined as ground glass, consolidation, reticulation, septal and/or pleural thickening not due to airways disease.
