TABLE 2.
Outcome | N | Control∗ | Flight∗ | Relative difference (95% C.I.) | p-value |
HR | 34 | −3.6% | 0.3% | 3.9 (2.1, 5.8) | <0.0001 |
RMSSD | 34 | 13.2% | 2.6% | −10.6 (−21.3, 0.05) | 0.0511 |
SDNN | 34 | 13.3% | 12.3% | −1.0 (−12.3, 10.2) | 0.8576 |
HF | 34 | 24.9% | 7.6% | −17.3 (−42.0, 7.4) | 0.1691 |
LF | 34 | 50.2% | 38.7% | −11.5 (−40.5, 17.4) | 0.4351 |
HF, high-frequency power; LF, low-frequency power; RMSSD, root mean square of successive R-R interval differences; SDNN, the standard deviation of normal-to-normal intervals. ∗Estimates represent the percent change in outcome from pre-condition to post-condition. Relative difference is the difference between those two values, flight – control. Associations are adjusted for diurnal variation, chamber effect, and a fixed effect for each participant.
