In LAM patients, mTOR inhibitors improved forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1) and forced vital capacity (FVC) significantly, with the weighted mean difference (WMD) 0.15 L (95%CI: 0.08 to 0.22, P < 0.01, I2 = 0%) and 0.22 L (95%: 0.11 to 0.32, P < 0.01, I2 = 0%) respectively. Here, MTOR is linked to lymphangioleiomyomatosis.
