At a glance I see that the HRV CSV file does not contain any Rpoints from the 157th epoch (wake according to Profusion) for mesaid = 2. Would this account for your sequences "missing" a 0? There are 22 zeros in the HRV array and 23 in the Profusion array you posted. I was looking at the "epoch" column in the HRV CSV file. There would appear to be a 38.84 second "jump" in time (seconds column) between Rpoints.
My guess would be that this area was scrubbed/censored during the HRV Rpoint identification. Maybe there was artifact in the signal. I could have a PSG scorer here look it up to confirm. Let me know if this sort of missingness would account for the sequence shifts you are seeing across subjects.
Thanks for raising the issue. I will look into this. Can you post two IDs that don't have any mismatches (assuming you cut off longer sequence) and another ID (like mesaid = 2) where there are mismatches?
Is the sequence you posted starting at position/epoch 153 for mesaid = 2? Just wanted to confirm I'm looking at the same snippet.
Omer,
The RDI* variables in SHHS are not necessarily "AHI + arousals". They are more like AHI variables, but all events (apneas and hypopneas) are required to be associated with a desaturation (of 4%, for instance, in RDI4P).
I assume there are people trying to "diagnose" sleep apnea using only an oximetry channel. Naturally, the ODI closely aligns with AHI in many cases.
Do you have any specific data questions? Or inconsistent data findings? I wasn't sure exactly what I was looking at in your image.
Note that if you derived "new" oxygen desaturations from the raw signal then you would want to be sure your methodology matched with whatever was used by the original sleep scoring software. Otherwise your new metrics would not be comparable.

Thanks for checking out the resource.
If you search "menopause" in the main search box, certain variables will come up: https://sleepdata.org/search?search=menopause
At a glance, HeartBEAT and CFS have menopause-related variables. Of these, only CFS was done in a laboratory setting. You can look deeper in the CFS variable pages to find out how many female subjects are in the age group you're looking for.
Great! Yes, Sara Mariani created the "nsrr" fork of the tool and made some enhancements to the interface in recent years.
Good luck - please let us know how it goes!
Jun,
Could you try the NSRR fork of this tool? https://github.com/nsrr/SpectralTrainFig (download source code and extract on your computer)
I was able to get this working with the example EDF/XML. I changed the XML Suffix to ".EDF.XML" since that's what the example file has for the extension.
I am sorry about the struggles you have had with the tools up until this point - the original authors of SpectralTrainFig are no longer connected to the NSRR, so we don't have in-house support.
It sounds like you want HRV examples from healthy subjects. Unfortunately, I think the only datasets with posted HRV results are "special" in one way or another. SHHS has subjects with cardiovascular risk factors, CHAT has children with OSA, MESA has adults with atherosclerosis, etc.
There are certainly a wide range of subjects in each dataset, so you could look for the subjects with the lowest AHI values, lowest number of risk factors, etc. In other words, create some sort of "healthiness" index for a given dataset based on a pre-determined set of factors/variables.
Richard,
I'm not 100% sure what you're asking for. Could you provide more information?
Some of our datasets have "processed" HRV data already available. See these links for examples:
Happy New Year - thanks for using NSRR!
Reza,
Thanks for adding that to the discussion! I will make a note on the introduction page. Unfortunately, the original raw data and scoring for those 4 studies were lost due to a server crash many years ago.
