Figure 1 Group differences in age and body mass index (BMI). The top row shows the individual recorded surface electromyography (sEMG) root mean square (RMS) values (points). The height of the box shows the interquartile range (ie, middle 50% of the data) and the bold line within the box is the median. The white points with blue vertical lines show the estimated mean sEMG RMS values and 95% highest density intervals (HDI; ie, uncertainty of the estimated mean) derived from the Bayesian multivariate robust linear regression. The bottom row shows the estimated differences (points) in mean sEMG RMS values with corresponding 80% and 95% HDI. The R2 values in panel subtitles are for the whole model, including age and BMI effects. This figure was created using R 4.4.3 and ggplot2 library.
