Table 1.
The t test results in terms of average values for all channels (1–42) comparing z-scores for oxyHb between patients with MCS and controls
| Test | MCS (n = 6) | Controls (n = 6) | p value |
|---|---|---|---|
| MO (1) | 0.47 (2.40) | 0.66 (2.05) | 0.336 |
| Pf (2) | 1.05 (2.57) | −0.11 (1.33) | <0.001* |
| NO (3) | 0.70 (2.47) | 0.73 (1.48) | 0.895 |
| JC (4) | 1.41 (3.37) | 0.40 (1.35) | <0.001* |
| Mt (5) | 0.73 (3.02) | 0.23 (1.08) | 0.013* |
| Pf (6) | 0.82 (3.13) | −0.03 (1.02) | <0.001* |
| JC (7) | 0.66 (3.11) | 0.63 (2.63) | 0.905 |
| NO (8) | 0.13 (1.15) | 0.23 (1.34) | 0.407 |
| Mt (9) | 1.06 (2.93) | 0.56 (2.50) | 0.038* |
| MO (10) | 0.61 (1.59) | 0.01 (0.94) | <0.001* |
Values are expressed as means (±standard deviations). Numbers in parentheses in column 1 indicate the order of the 10 repetitions (1–10)
