PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: First 7 days after baseline

Population: Patients in treated dataset for whom data were available in 7 days after baseline

Bootstrap distribution of correlations analysis of patient-measured versus clinic-measured Forced Vital Capacity (FVC) at baseline calculated as follows. Means of first 7 days of patient-recorded FVC after baseline were calculated. (Patients without a single spirometry value in the 7-day window were excluded). Correlation between in-clinic FVC and patient-recorded FVC was calculated by randomly sampling from the data and calculating the Pearson correlation coefficient. This was repeated 1000 times, giving an empirical distribution for correlation (known as bootstrapping). The mean of this distribution is the inferred correlation.

Bootstrap distribution of correlations analysis of patient-measured versus clinic-measured Forced Vital Capacity (FVC) at end of study calculated as follows: Means of last 7 days of patient-recorded FVC after baseline were calculated. (Patients without a single spirometry value in the 7-day window were excluded). Correlation between in-clinic FVC and patient-recorded FVC was calculated by randomly sampling from the data and calculating the Pearson correlation coefficient.
