*
p-Value was assessed by U-Mann Whitney test.
All other p-values are the result of t-student tests; 6MWT – 6-minute walk test; BI – bronchoscopic intervention; FEV1 – forced expiratory volume in 1 second; FEV1/FVC – Tiffeneau-Pinelli index; FVC – forced vital capacity; IQR – interquartile range; M – mean; Me – median; post-sat – oxygen saturation at the end of 6-minute walk test; pre-sat – oxygen saturation measured at the beginning of 6-minute walk test; SD – standard deviation.
