NCT ID NCT07174180
Summary
This study aims to understand how wearing a hijab (a headscarf and cloak) affects the body's ability to cool down during exercise in hot, dry weather. Researchers will measure body temperature, sweat evaporation, and comfort levels in 12 healthy young women as they exercise. The goal is to gather scientific data to better understand heat stress and comfort for active Muslim women.
