An example of evoked twitch force of the first dorsal interosseous muscle in one subject at 4 different stages during cold water immersion of the hand. (1) Initial [right index finger temperature (Tif) = 29.5°C, and skin temperature above the first dorsal interosseus (Tfdi) = 31.5°C], (2) nadir cold-induced vasodilatation (CIVD) (Tif = 9.5°C, Tfdi = 17.2°C), (3) apex CIVD (Tif = 13.3°C, Tfdi = 14.8°C), (4) final (Tif = 12.1°C, Tfdi = 14.1°C).
