Popis: Skin temperature assessment has received much attention as a possible measurement of physiological response against stress produced by exercise and research studies usually measure skin temperature 24 or 48h after exercise. Scientific evidence about skin temperature evolution during the 24-h period immediately after exercising is, however, scarce. The aim was to assess the effect of a 10km run at moderate intensity on baseline skin temperature and thermal response after a cold stress test during that 24h period. Fourteen participants were measured before, immediately after, and at 2, 5, 9 and 24h after a 10km run at a perceived exertion rate of 11 points (max 20 points). Fourteen control participants who undertook no exercise were also measured during that day. The measurements included muscle pain and fatigue perception, reactive oxygen species, heart rate variability, skin temperature of the lower limbs, and skin temperature after cold stress test. Exercise resulted in a skin temperature increase (e.g., 0.5-1.3°C of posterior leg 9h after exercise) and this effect continued in some regions (0.4-0.9°C of posterior leg) over that 24h period. However, the thermal response to the cold stress test remained the same (p>0.05). In conclusion, 10km aerobic running exercise results in a skin temperature increase, peaking at between 5 and 9h after exercise, but does not alter the thermal response to a cold stress test. This study provides a sound basis for post-exercise skin temperature response that can be used as a setting-off point for comparisons with future studies that analyze greater muscle damage.
