Time-Series Analysis

Meaning

Time-Series Analysis is a statistical technique used in clinical and research settings to analyze data points collected over a period of time, such as daily cortisol rhythms or monthly hormone levels, to identify trends, seasonality, and patterns. This method is crucial in hormonal health for understanding the dynamic nature of endocrine systems and for accurately assessing the long-term efficacy and safety of therapeutic interventions. It moves beyond single-point measurements to reveal the true physiological trajectory of a patient’s biomarkers. The sophisticated interpretation of these patterns informs precision dosing adjustments.
