Using time plots of serial measurements of physiologic as well as psychologic parameters (blood pressure, body weight, pulse rate and an adjective list by Sokolow) possible evaluation strategies applicable to extended data sets are demonstrated. The data set used in this study has been compiled over a seven year period by daily sampling of the aforementioned parameters by a male patient. Preliminary findings indicate, that covariation between parameters differs, when data of distant time sections are considered.
