Plasma sICAM-1 (a), sVCAM-1 (b), and sE-selectin (c) levels of experimental rats after the 4-week treatments. WKYs: WKYs on a wooden board without FIR radiation; SHR-CL: SHRs on a wooden board without FIR radiation; SHR-FIR: SHRs on a wooden board with FIR radiation. Data are mean ± SEM from n = 10 animals per treatment group. *p < 0.05 vs. WKY group, #p < 0.05 vs. SHRs with FIR irradiation
