Evolution of the CPC estimators before SBT. The CPC parameters \(\mathscr {C}^{\mathcal {T}}_{{\rm HF}}\),\(\mathscr {CE}_{{\rm r} \leftrightarrow {\mathrm{m}}}\) and \({\mathscr {P}}_{{\rm m}_{{\rm r}}}\), are represented. Green and Red boxplots represent the patients of the S-group and the F-group, respectively. The p-value comparing each half hour is represented in the right axis, from 0 to 1, and the dotted line represents the \(p=0.05\) threshold. Black asterisks indicate statistical significance with \(p \le 0.05\). Blue stars above p-values indicate medium effect size with Cohen’s \(d \in [0.5,0.8)\), and blue crosses indicate small effect size with Cohen’s \(d \in [0.2,0.5)\).
