2.4. Statistical Analysis
HBP
Data are presented as group mean values and standard deviations. A multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) was used to analyze differences between study groups in all baseline variables. ExcelANOVA analysis of dependent variables were used for the HBP and control groups by five moments (rest, exercise, R1, R2, and R3) with repeated measures on the last factor. Post-hoc comparisons were carried out using the Tukey-HSD (Honest Significant Difference) test. Bonferroni corrections were not necessary because our two-by-two study design did not demand multiple testing. The significance level was set at
