From: Regional variations in transepidermal water loss, eccrine sweat gland density, sweat secretion rates and electrolyte composition in resting and exercising humans

Figure 6

Comparisons among the regional distributions of eccrine sweating. (A) At rest and (B) during exercise. Data are means with 95% confidence intervals. Values distilled from the literature are also contained within Figures4 and5 and are duplicated here (in descending order within each graph) for ease of comparison. Data from authors' laboratory (Wollongong: sweat capsules (capacitance hygrometry)) were collected from the studies reported in Figures7 and8 but grouped to match the target 14 regions.
