Table 1

Baseline lung function (mean % predicted with range) and mean coefficient of variation (%) with adjusted mean (95% CI) at end of treatment with fluticasone propionate and placebo. Also included are estimated mean treatment differences (fluticasone propionate minus placebo) with 95% CI. Values of p > 0.05 are considered non-significant (NS)
