FIGURE 2.

DeO₂ in both the forearm flexor (FA ‐gray bars) muscles and the vastus lateralis of the quadriceps muscle (Q ‐white bars) of men (men =1, n = 25) and women (women =2, n = 20) under placebo (Panel a, left) and capsaicin conditions (Panel b, right). Data are presented as median, upper and lower quartiles, and upper and lower bounds, with individuals plots overlaid. *Main effect of limb (p = 0.007, η _p ² = 0.19). #Main effect of sex (p = 0.005, η _p ² = 0.203). $Significant interactions of limb*capsaicin (p = 0.001, η _p ² = 0.26) as well as limb*capsaicin*sex on DeO₂ (p = 0.013, η _p ² = 0.16).
