Trends in Weight and Cardiac Parameters Over 5 Days in 38 Young Women Hospitalized for Anorexia Nervosa

	Adjusted for Covariates^a		Adjusted for Covariates and Weight^a

Parameter	Linear Trend/d (SE)	P Value^b	Linear Trend/d (SE)	P Value^b
Weight, kg	0.3 (0.0)	<.001	NA	NA
Pulse, beats/min	1.3 (0.2)	<.001	1.4 (0.2)	<.001
Minimum SBP, mm Hg	0.3 (0.3)	.32	0.1 (0.3)	.67
Orthostatic pulse change, beats/min	0.4 (0.5)	.42	0.2 (0.5)	.75
Orthostatic SBP change, mm Hg	−0.2 (0.5)	.72	−0.5 (0.4)	.19
Phosphorus, mg/dL	−0.1 (0.0)	<.001	−0.1 (0.0)	<.001

Abbreviations: NA, not applicable; SBP, systolic blood pressure.

SI conversion factor: To convert phosphorus to millimoles per liter, multiply by 0.323.

Covariates are age, baseline percentage of median body weight, and hours of regular exercise per week.

From repeated-measures analysis; P tests for linear trend are significantly different from 0.
