Estimated marginal means [standard error] based on results of linear mixed models.

Statistical significance of multiple comparisons: *p<0.05, **p<0.01, ***p<0.001 (relative to Control).

TEAR: tympanic temperatures; TTA: skin surface temperatures over tibialis anterior; TSOL: skin surface temperatures over soleus; TMAT: thermal mat surface temperatures; %RHSOL: relative humidity over soleus; d: Cohen’s d as effect size.
