A mixed linear model for two-way repeated-measures ANOVA; One-way repeated-measures ANOVA and Dunnett's test (T1 = control; * P < .001); One-way repeated-measures ANOVA and Bonferroni correction (†P < .0167, ‡ P < .001, a: moist hot towel > hot pack b: moist hot towel > dry hot towel, c: hot pack > dry hot towel, d: hot pack > moist hot towel, e: hot pack and dry hot pack > moist hot towel). T1, baseline; T2, at the removal of heat; T3, after applying the tourniquet
