1 Determining presence of lung disease in young children with cystic fibrosis: Lung clearance index, oxygen saturation and cough frequency  E.M. Bakker, J.C. van der Meijden, E.M. Nieuwhof, W.C.J. Hop, H.A.W.M. Tiddens  Journal of Cystic Fibrosis  Volume 11, Issue 3, Pages (May 2012) DOI: /j.jcf Copyright © 2011 European Cystic Fibrosis Society Terms and Conditions

2 Fig. 1 Lung clearance index (LCI) in healthy children and cystic fibrosis (CF) patients. Circles depict healthy children, diamonds depict CF patients. Horizontal bars indicate mean LCI for each group. p<0.001 for the difference in mean LCI between CF patients and healthy children.

3 Fig. 2 Mean saturation measured on two nights. On the Y-axis mean saturation for the 1st night, on the X-axis the 2nd night. Spearman's rank correlation coefficient (rs)=0.5, p= Open squares depict healthy children; closed circles depict cystic fibrosis patients. The dotted line shows the line of identity.
