Comparisons regarding overall measurements utilize clustered regression models for longitudinal data, with summed hemodynamic measurements being the dependent variables and (repeatedly measured) biochemical markers being the independent variable (i.e., effect of mean hemodynamic measurements on biochemical markers); each row corresponds to separate model regarding the effect of specific hemodynamic measurement on specific biochemical marker.
Hemodynamic measurements refer to all time-points summed as mean, according to protocol period (2–8 minutes for CPR, 0–120 minutes for ROSC), apart from baseline.
Effects refer to per 10 mmHg change in mean hemodynamic measurements, due to very small -coefficients.
