Distribution of MUC5B rs35705950 genotypes and association with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF).
Fig 1.
Baseline pulmonary function (FVC) according to MUC5B rs35705950 genotype in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF).
Legend: Box-and-strip plots display forced vital capacity (FVC) in liters (A) and percent predicted (B) stratified by genotype (G/G, G/T, T/T). Central circles show marginal means from linear models adjusted for age, sex, and ethnicity, with covariates held at observed means/proportions; error bars indicate 95% CI. Pairwise comparisons were Tukey-adjusted. T-allele carriers exhibited lower FVC than G/G.

Fig 2.
Kaplan-Meier survival by MUC5B rs35705950 genotype in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF).
Legend: Step plots show survival from symptom onset stratified by genotype. Curves suggest lower survival among T-allele carriers, although differences were not significant (overall log-rank χ² = 1.07; p = 0.30). Time in years; Numbers at risk are provided in the Supplement.
