Figure 3

Mean response time in the various participants’ categories. The figure shows the box plot distributions of wMRT within the following categories: healthy controls (Healthy); restrictive lung disease (Restrictive); chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD); pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH); congestive heart failure (CHF). The reparameterized wMRT showed significant differences between patients and healthy controls (p <0.001), the latter showing low wMRT values. Patients suffering from PAH have higher wMRT values than patients with COPD (p = 0.010), restrictive lung disease (p <0.001) and with CHF (p <0.001).
