All IOS measures are transformed and analyses are adjusted for use of both substances and also adjusted for body mass index and height; significant associations are shown in bold. β-values are standardised regression coefficients, which represent the standard deviation difference in IOS measure associated with each standard deviation change in joint- or pack-years. R5: resistance at 5 Hz; R20: resistance at 20 Hz; R5R20: difference between R5 and R20; X5: reactance at 5 Hz; AX: area under the reactance curve between 5 Hz and resonant frequency (fres).
