Violin plots of pulmonary function test findings across assigned blast exposure groups. Blast exposure group assignments are as follows: none (n = 208), single mild (n = 52), and multiple mild (n = 47). The y-axis represents the range for each of the nine respective variables and measurement units are dependent on variable type: Total Lung Capacity (TLC%; % predicted), Forced Expiratory Volume at 1 s (FEV1%; % predicted), % change in FEV1 after bronchodilator (%∆FEV1PB), the FEV1 to Forced Vital Capacity ratio (FEV1/FVC), the corrected DLCO (DLCO%, % predicted), difference in resistance between 4 and 20 Hz (R4–R20%), % change in reactance area after bronchodilator (%∆AX), and % change in resistance and reactance at the lowest frequency (4 Hz) after bronchodilator (%∆R4PB and %∆X4PB)
