Fig. 2 Changes in FEV1 after the start of ivacaftor and its associates. A) There was no association between baseline FEV1 and ΔFEV1. B) The change in body weight was not significantly correlated with ΔFEV1. C) A decrease in RV/TLC was significantly associated with an increase in FEV1 in the 10 patients with RV and TLC measurements.
