Figure 1 Relationship between QT variability index (QTVI) or Tpeak-Tend variability index (TeVI) and age in healthy control subjects.
Abbreviation: QT, from the Q wave to the T wave end.

Figure 2 Relationship between age and ratio of short-term QT or Tpeak-Tend (Te) variability (STV) and resting rate (RR) variability indices, calculated on 60 consecutive beats (QT/RR STV60, Te/RRv STV60) or on 5-minute electrocardiogram recordings (QT/RR STVT, Te/RRv STVT) in healthy control subjects.
Abbreviations: QT, from the Q wave to the T wave end; v, variance.
