Figure 1. Comparison of (A) forced expiratory volume in the
first second (FEV1), (B) peak oxygen uptake
(VO2peak), and (C) breathing reserve (BR) between
healthy individuals and patients with asthma and cystic fibrosis (CF).
Comparisons were performed using the one-way ANOVA followed by the
Bonferroni post-hoc test. *indicates significant differences atp <0.05, **indicates significant differences atp <0.001, and ****indicates significant differences atp <0.0001.
Figure 2. Comparison of ventilatory equivalent for oxygen
consumption (VEVO2) and ventilatory
equivalent for carbon dioxide production
(VEVCO2) at the ventilatory threshold
(VT1) (A) and (B), and peak exercise (C) and (D),
respectively, between healthy individuals and patients with asthma and
cystic fibrosis (CF). Comparisons were performed using the one-way ANOVA
followed by the Bonferroni post-hoc test. *indicates significant
differences at p <0.05, **indicates significant
differences at p <0.001, and ****indicates significant
differences at p <0.0001.
