Rectal (Trec) and ear canal temperature (Tear) during treadmill exercise in a hot and humid environment (A) and the Bland–Altman plot for Trec and Tear (B). Values are means ± SD. †, Significant difference from the value at 0 min in Trec, P < 0.005. Significant difference from the value at 0 min in Tear. §, significant difference between Trec and Tear, P < 0.01. Solid and dashed lines indicate mean of Trec and Tear (mean) and 95% limit of agreement (LoA, mean ± 1.96 SD), respectively. The number of the data points is also presented. Two data points were excluded because of the measurement noise for Trec (61 in total)
