title: Circadian and circatrigintan rhythms in pulse, oral temperature and blood pressure of a clinically healthy Japanese woman.
abstract: The circadian and circatrigintan (menstrual) system of a healthy Japanese woman has been quantified by single cosinor analyses. The results obtained at only 2 frequencies are discussed against the background of prior chronobiologic information. The paper documents different acrophase relations of rhythms with different frequencies in the same variables and includes a sketch of the position of the single cosinor method as a tool in a methodologic armamentarium of broader interest in anthropology, medicine and more generally in biology.
