3.2. Intervention Effects
MIC%
The effects of the intervention, as well as the comparisons between groups, are presented in In the control group, MIC started at 3.72 mL (SD = 1.55) and slightly decreased to 3.62 mL (SD = 1.45) post-treatment, while MIC% had a baseline of 91.10 (SD = 16.79) and decreased to 88.90 (SD = 16.01) post-treatment. The between-group comparisons underscored these variances, with MIC illustrating a significant mean difference of 0.54 (95% CI 0.10–0.98, Regarding other parameters, such as FVC and PCF, while they were measured, they did not exhibit statistically significant changes post-intervention. For instance, in the intervention group, FVC values shifted from 2.47 mL (SD = 1.35) at baseline to 2.54 mL (SD = 1.33) post-treatment, while in the control group, FVC moved slightly from 3.16 mL (SD = 1.43) to 3.17 mL (SD = 1.33). Similarly, PCF in the intervention group changed from 267.42 mL/m (SD = 171.34) at baseline to 282.83 mL/m (SD = 157.23) post-treatment, and in the control group, it changed from 284.40 mL/m (SD = 140.75) to 305.60 mL/m (SD = 116.74).
