Characteristics of the multifractal spectrum in patients with FM and healthy subjects during daytime.
| Parameters | Healthy | Fibromyalgia | p-value |
|---|---|---|---|
| Δα | 0.6324 ± 0.1809 | 0.6136 ± 0.1291 | 0.6565 |
| Δαleft | 0.4317 ± 0.1567 | 0.4320 ± 0.1150 | 0.9947 |
| Δαrigth | 0.2006 ± 0.1095 | 0.1816 ± 0.0813 | 0.4638 |
| HG | 1.1595 ± 0.1108 | 1.2302 ± 0.1089 | 0.01947 |
| Left-slope in τ | 1.5389 ± 0.2122 | 1.6031 ± 0.2871 | 0.3459 |
| Right-slope in τ | 1.0904 ± 0.1515 | 1.1770 ± 0.1257 | 0.0236 |
The values of the parameters (mean ± SD) were obtained from fittings within the interval 6 < s < 100 in the logFq(s) vs. logs plane. HG stands for global Hurst exponent.
