IL-1α concentration (pg/ml) presented as median and IQR. BM indicates baseline measurement before loading. 0, 5, 10, 15, and 60 indicate the time points after loading of the skin (in minutes). (a) IL-1α concentration measurements after the application of pressure and shear. Statistical significant value of in all three groups compared with their own baseline measurement. No statistically significant differences were measured between the groups. (b) IL-1α concentration measurements after the application of pressure and shear. Statistical significant value of in all three groups compared with their own baseline measurement.
