** Ideal body weight was calculated using the following equations: men, 50 + (0.91 × [height–152.4]); women, 45.5 + [height–152.4]). All other body metrics were obtaining using bioelectrical impedance analysis. BIA, bioelectrical impedance analysis; CVID, common variable immune deficiency; IVIG, intravenous immune globulin. No bronchiectasis or diarrhea reported in study subjects.
