Figure 4Lung function at 8 and 16 years of age. Parallel lung function (FEV1, expressed as a percentage) in CF patients at 8 and 16 years of age was stratified according to whether they belonged to the MBL-sufficient group (
A/A and
YA/0;
n = 75) (open boxes) or the MBL-insufficient group (
XA/0 and
0/0;
n = 10) (gray boxes). Boxes are interquartile ranges. Bars show range from 10th to 90th percentiles.
