  1. P-values of the mixed-effects models are presented. Abbreviations: , positive association; , negative association; E/I ratio, expiratory/inspiratory ratio; FEV1, forced expiratory volume in one second; FVC, forced vital capacity; MEF25−75, mean expiratory flow between 25 and 75% of FVC; MEF25, maximal expiratory flow when 25% of FVC remains to be exhaled; sqrt, square root; *, P < 0.05.
