Figure 2

Scatterplot showing the autocorrelation values for each patient during the two different treatment periods (OD and TID). The variability of the serum cortisol profile decreases with autocorrelations closer to 1. The serum cortisol time profile variability was significantly lower during OD compared to TID (P = 2.2 × 10–16), which is reflected by higher autocorrelation values. Abbreviations: OD, once daily; TID, 3 times daily.
