Table 1. Mean parameters of the circadian rhythms of the sleep wake cycle.
Sleep/Wake cycle(count/min) | Patients | Control | p |
---|---|---|---|
Acrophase (hh:mm) | 3:05PM ± 1:03h | 3:09PM ± 0:19h | 0.84 |
Amplitude (count/min) | 0.86 ± 0.04 | 0.93 ± 0.03 | 0.004* |
Mesor (count/min) | 193.11 ± 53.84 | 203.88 ± 45.6 | 0.68 |
Mean parameters of the circadian rhythms of the sleep/wake cycle calculated by the Non-Parametric Circadian Rhythm Analysis (NPCRA) method.
* indicates a significant difference with p<0.05.
