Frequency-Domain Parameters in OCD Patients vs. Controls
| OCD | Control | P-Value | BH | |||
| Median | Interquartile Range | Median | Interquartile Range | |||
| TOTAL_P (ms2) | 696.35 | 429.23–1959.50 | 2214 | 1343.50–4388.00 | 0.002 | 0.015a |
| VLF (ms2) | 292.05 | 106.96–559.43 | 587.4 | 439.30–1063.35 | 0.004 | 0.024a |
| LF (nu) | 50.785 | 36.55–68.60 | 55.19 | 40.53–66.73 | 0.61 | 0.082 |
| HF (nu) | 48.27 | 31.55–57.62 | 43.77 | 32.51–52.52 | 0.42 | 0.076 |
| LF/HF (%) | 1.0515 | 0.63–2.18 | 1.261 | 0.89–1.96 | 0.46 | 0.079 |
Abbreviations: BH, critical value for the Benjamini–Hochberg correction for multiple testing, (i/m)*Q, where i is the rank, m is the total number of tests (m = 34), and Q is the false discovery rate (Q = 0.10). TOTAL_P, total power; VLF, very low frequency; LF, low frequency; HF, high frequency; LF/HF, ratio of LF to HF.
Note: aResult was still significant after the BH correction (P < BH). HRV: Nonlinear Parameters
