This retrieval system builds, updates, retrieves, and performs basic statistical analyses on blood, urine, and diet parameters for the M071 and M073 Skylab and Apollo experiments. This system permits data entry from cards to build an indexed sequential file. Programs are easily modified for specialized analyses.
The biomedical data of the astronauts on Skylab 3 were analyzed to evaluate the univariate statistical methods for comparing endocrine series experiments in relation to other medical experiments. It was found that an information storage and retrieval system was needed to facilitate statistical analyses.
The results of endocrine/metabolic studies of astronauts on Skylab 3 are reported. One-way analysis of variance, contrasts, two-way unbalanced analysis of variance, and analysis of periodic changes in flight are included. Results for blood tests, and urine tests are presented.
