Figure 7.

Effect of SLGP ablation on the HRV. (A) Changes in HR among the three groups, *P < 0.05 vs. CTRL, **P < 0.01 vs. CTRL, ^#P < 0.05 vs. OSA. Changes in SBP in the OSA group (B) and the OSA + GP group (C) at baseline, 6 h, and the 12th week, **P < 0.01 vs. Pre-. Change in LF (D), HF (E), and LF/HF (F) among the three groups at baseline and the 4th, 8th, and 12th week, *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01. Change in LF (G), HF (H), and LF/HF (I) in each group at baseline and the 4th, 8th, and 12th week; *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01. HR, heart rate; SBP, systolic blood pressure; LF, low frequency; HF, high frequency; LF/HF, the ratio between LF and HF; other abbreviations as in Figure 1.
