The bp_rats data set includes arterial blood pressure waveform time series data
of the SS(n = 9) and SS.13 (n = 6) genetic strains of Dahl rats sampled at 100 Hz who
were each administered a low and high salt diet. It is taken from the study of Bugenhagen
et al.(2010) which sought to investigate the origins of the baroreflex dysfunction in
salt-sensitive Dahl rats on Hypertension.
bp_ratsA data frame containing 5 variables pertaining to arterial continuous waveform blood pressure as follows:
The type of a particular Dahl Rat (either SS or SSBN13) corresponding to the sodium intake administered: ss_hs = SS rat given the high sodium diet ss_ls = SS rat given the low sodium diet ssbn13_hs = SSBN13 rat given the high sodium diet ssbn13_ls = SSBN13 rat given the low sodium diet
ID # corresponding to a particular rat. There are 9 SS rats and 6 SSBN13 rats.
Continuous waveform data of each rat's arterial (blood) pressure sampled at 100 Hz.
Amount of time elapsed, expressed in seconds
Amount of time elapsed, expressed in minutes
