Some common risk factors, as well as forced expiratory volume, vital lung capacity, and Tiffenau index have been examined with Cox analysis. The 10-year survival equation was as follows: [formula: see text] In disagreement with other studies, in our survey smoking was not a predictor of mortality, although it was able to reduce survival by reducing respiratory function.
