2. Figure 1
Distribution of SIIIN2 and SIIIDTG in patients with COPD and healthy subjects. SIIIN2 = phase III slope of nitrogen single-breath washout; SIIIDTG = phase III slope of double tracer gas (helium and sulfur hexafluoride) single-breath washout.

3. Figure 2
Association of SIIIN2 and DIIIDTG with lung function parameters in COPD. Dlco = diffusing capacity of the lung for carbon monoxide; RV = residual volume; TLC = total lung capacity. See Figure 1 legend for expansion of other abbreviations.

4. Figure 3
Association of SIIIN2 and DIIIDTG with symptoms, exercise capacity, and CT scans. LAA950 = low-attenuation area less than –950 Hounsfield units; MMRC = modified Medical Research Council dyspnea scale; Spo2 = peripheral oxygen saturation. See Figure 1 and 2 legends for expansion of other abbreviations.

5. Figure 4
Main features of putative phenotypes characterizing large airways (airflow obstruction) and small airways (SIIIN2 and SIIIDTG ventilation inhomogeneity). Allocation is based on data from Table 2 and e-Table 1. VI = ventilation inhomogeneity. See Figure 1, 2, and 3 legends for expansion of other abbreviations.
