Correlations among changes in body mass index and HRV measurements for the SCZ, EWG and NWG groups.
The change in body mass index (ΔBMI) is positively correlated with the change in the normalized low frequency power LFn (ΔLFn) and the LF/HF ratio (ΔLF/HF) and negatively correlated with the change in the standard deviation for the NN interval (ΔSDNN) and normalized high frequency power (ΔHFn) in both the SCZ and EWG groups (All P < 0.05). There is only a marginal negative correlation between ΔBMI and ΔHFn (P = 0.05) for the NWG group.
