Popis: | Temporal and thermal differences between the initiation of precursor, eccrine sweat and its surface discharge were investigated during passive heating. Sudomotor activity was evaluated using electrodermal (precursor) and ventilated sweat capsule measurements (dorsal fingers, dorsal hand, forehead, forearm). Passive heating significantly elevated auditory canal (0.5 degrees C) and mean body temperatures (0.9 degrees C). At each site, the precursor sudomotor thresholds occurred at a lower mean body temperature (P |
