Figure 2 Box and whisker plot of lung function parameters at 3-month and 3-year postevent screening. * indicates significant difference from 3-month value (P < .05). The box represents the range from the lower to upper quartile (25–75th percentile), the middle line is the median, and the vertical bars span the range to the minimum (0–25th percentile) and maximum (75–100th percentile) values. FEF75, forced expiratory flow at 75% of FVC; FEV1, forced expiratory volume in 1 second; FVC = forced vital capacity.
