The analysis of variance was used to evaluate the comparisons within the transient transfection assays.
Mixed-effects models of repeated measures will be used to evaluate longitudinal comparisons (4 weeks, 3 months and 6 months).
Tests of contrast on linear model parameters were used to evaluate pairwise comparisons of interest (Asthma x Healthy pre-HRV, A x H post-HRV, HRV changes in A, HRV changes in H, A x H HRV changes).
Fisher's exact test was used to evaluate this comparison; motifs with p-value < 0.05 are detailed in Additional file 4: Table S4.
Independent t-test with an alpha value of 0.05 was used to evaluate sex differences comparisons.
Independent-sample t- tests were used to evaluate between group comparisons on continuous variables (age, BMI, waist circumstance, HbA1c, duration of diabetes and ankle-brachial index).
Descriptive statistics were calculated, and a repeated-measures analysis of variance was used to evaluate within-group comparisons, with Mauchly or Greenhouse-Geisser correction depending on sphericity.
The same criteria must be used to evaluate their unexposed comparison group.
This dataset was used to evaluate ABCpred in comparison with BCpred, AAPBCpred and ABCpred in terms of fivefold cross-validation [ 12].
This section provides details of the datasets and the experimental design, the evaluation measures we used to evaluate LP, and the comparison methods including chi squared, SWRF, and SLR.
