The upward and downward arrows stand respectively for the increasing and decreasing trend from one period to the next. “Time” column is the time effect significance in the two hours ANOVA analysis. The contrast analysis over the two time periods is listed subsequently. “0” is corresponding to the onset of AF.

Variables with asterisk were log transformed.
