Primary outcomes

  1. Six minute walking test

    Time frame: 20 minutes

    The test was conducted in a 30-meter corridor in line with American Thoracic Society (ATS) guidelines. Patients were asked to walk as far as they can. Prior to and following the test, oxygen saturation, heart rate and Borg fatigue rating were measured, and the walking distance were recorded

  2. Pulmonary Function Tests

    Time frame: 15 minutes

    PFTs were performed by using the Sensormedics model 2400 (Yorba Linda, CA, USA) spirometry device, and according to the American Thoracic Society (ATS) guidelines

Secondary outcomes

  1. Carbonmonoxide diffusion test

    Time frame: 15 minutes

    It will performed in the pulmonary function test laboratory using Cosmed Quark PFT (USA) with single-breath technique
