Fig. 1: Average real-world walking speed.
From: Changes in real-world walking speed following 60-day bed-rest

a average RWS values per period per group. Error bars represent ±1 standard deviation. Speed values are expressed in m/s. b average RWS values per day per group. Speed values are expressed in m/s. Group name Ctrl refers to the control group, which did not receive any type of intervention to counteract the effects of bed-rest. The group name iAG refers to the group that received intermitted artificial gravity training sessions as intervention to counteract the effects of bed-rest. The group name cAG refers to the group that received continuous artificial gravity training sessions as intervention to counteract the effects of bed-rest. The phase names refer to the different phases of the study: pre.home refers to a 1-week measurement from the 28th to the 21st day at home prior the bed-rest study; pre.dlr refers to a 2-week measurement in the DLR ward in the 14 days prior the bed-rest study; post.dlr refers to a 2-week measurement in the 13 days after the bed-rest study; post.home(R + 28) refers to a 1-week measurement from the 21st to the 28th day after the bed-rest; post.home(R + 90) refers to a 1-week measurement from the 83rd to the 90th day after the bed-rest.
