From: Computed tomography patterns predict clinical course of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis
Lung function changes over 5 years in patients with IPF according to the HRCT patterns. These mixed-effect model plots were adjusted by age, sex, smoking history, and HRCT patterns as fixed effects and time as a random effect. Serial changes in a FVC (% predicted), b DLCO (% predicted), and c TLC (% predicted) UIP, usual interstitial pneumonia; FVC, forced vital capacity; DLCO, diffusing capacity of the lung for carbon monoxide; TLC, total lung capacity
