Circadian Analysis - New Module for LabChart 6 for Windows


The Circadian Analysis Module analyzes data with daily patterns to reveal the underlying themes. The new module for LabChart for Windows is particularly useful to researchers completing hormonal and sleep studies as well as any long-term study of physiological variables. Both continuous and intermittent recordings can be analyzed.

Set-Up in Seconds and Analyze Hundreds of Hours of Data


In the Circadian Analysis Module's easy-to-use setup dialog you can quickly:
  • Select the data channels to be analyzed
  • Choose to analyze the entire channel, or just a selection
  • Customize the circadian period (day length) and start time to suit your recordings
  • Apply an exclusion filter to set upper and lower limits for data to be included in the analysis
  • Configure the appropriate averaging interval for your recording

See Your Recordings in Light and Shade


The new module's Averaging View calculates and plots the data trace for the Average Day. You can also overlay the data traces for every day being analyzed. The Averaging View can be set up with light on/off shading so you can easily demonstrate day and night.

Generate Numerical Analysis Automatically


The Circadian Analysis Table View automatically calculates and displays numerical data for each circadian period and recording channel. Parameters measured for each day and the Average Day include:
  • Maximum
  • Minimum
  • Maximum-Minimum
  • Time at Maximum
  • Time at Minimum
  • Mean
You can copy the data in the Table View into LabChart’s internal spreadsheet, Data Pad, or into an external application for further analysis and calculations.

PowerLab and LabChart – Perfect for Long-Term Recordings


The release of Circadian Analysis Module coincides with the release of LabChart v6.1. This new version can sample up to 16 terabytes of compressed data, making it ideal for researchers who need to continuously record data for extended periods of time.

The Circadian Analysis module is also ideal for analyzing telemetry data recorded using PowerLab and the TR Scheduler Pod. The TR Scheduler Pod is a switching device that allows you to record from up to 8 Telemetry Research Wireless Transmitters with a single receiver. Recordings times and durations can be scheduled for days in advance using the Scheduler Extension for LabChart.
