In the index study group and control subjects, the median Dl \u00a0CO (mmol\/min\/kPa\/m2) at rest was 4.33 (95% confidence interval [CI], 4.18\u20134.62) and 4.75 (95% CI, 4.50\u20135.10), respectively (P = 0.01), and the median Q\u0307peff (L\/min\/m2) at rest was 3.26 (95% CI, 3.16\u20133.49) and 3.59 (95% CI, 3.43\u20133.81), respectively (P = 0.04). Q\u0307peff and Dl \u00a0CO values normalized during exercise but were reduced and lower than controls after a recovery period.
