(E) of participant engaging in an active stand (red)
vs passive tilt (black) over time. Baseline results were recorded prior to stand/tilt in supine position
for 5 minutes. Further measurements were taken immediately (within 30 seconds) after stand/tilt
and at following 1-minute intervals for 3 minutes. Active stand trend line represents averaged results
(n=10) with standard deviation, while the passive tilt results are from one data set (n=1). *P < 0.05,
all panel’s active stand time points compared to baseline, one-way repeated measures ANOVA.
