Fig 1 Chronic C pneumoniae infection at the baseline and decline in FEV1 during follow-up in nonsmoking patients with asthma and controls. Values are median (▪) and quartile range (whiskers), given in milliliters per year. Criteria for chronic C pneumoniae infection (CI +) = microimmunofluorescence IgG titer ≥ 128 and IgA titer ≥ 32.5 P values calculated with Mann-Whitney U test.
