*Represents the odds ratio for the lung-specific physiological variables in the multivariable model

All models are mixed-effect models with centers as random effect and considering a binomial distribution

All continuous variables were entered after standardization to improve convergence of the model, and odds ratio represent the increase in one standard deviation of the variable
