### Dermatological Clinical Evaluation Results
#### 3.2.2 Skin Moisture Analysis Results  
The average skin moisture measurements of the volunteers were measured by using Tewameter, both before and after the training sessions (Table 4). By assessing TEWL, researchers and dermatologists can evaluate the skin's hydration level, its ability to retain moisture, and the integrity of the skin barrier. This makes the Tewameter a valuable tool in dermatological research, cosmetic testing, and clinical diagnostics to understand skin conditions, the effectiveness of skincare products, and the impact of environmental factors on skin health. In Tewameter measurements, it is expected that the last measurement will be lower than the first one, indicating a negative trend [37]. Table 8 demonstrates how the condition of the skin can be interpreted in relation to Tewameter measurement values. \begin{table}
\begin{tabular}{c c c c c} \hline \hline
**Garment Group** & **Pre-Post Tests** & **N** & **Mean Rank** & **Sum of Ranks** \\ \hline \multirow{4}{*}{Control Group} & Negative Ranks & 2 \({}^{\text{a}}\) & 2.00 & 4.00 \\ \cline{2-5}  & Positive Ranks & 1 \({}^{\text{b}}\) & 2.00 & 2.00 \\ \cline{2-5}  & Ties & 6 \({}^{\text{c}}\) & & \\ \cline{2-5}  & Total & 9 & & \\ \hline \multirow{4}{*}{Microencapsulated Group} & Negative Ranks & 9 \({}^{\text{a}}\) & 5.00 & 45.00 \\ \cline{2-5}  & Positive Ranks & 0 \({}^{\text{b}}\) & 0.00 & 0.00 \\ \cline{1-1} \cline{2-5}  & Ties & 0 \({}^{\text{c}}\) & & \\ \cline{1-1} \cline{2-5}  & Total & 9 & & \\ \hline \hline \end{tabular} Note: Based on negative ranks. Note: \(p\) < 0.05, \({}^{\text{a}}\) Post < Pre; \({}^{\text{b}}\) Post > Pre; \({}^{\text{c}}\) Post = Pre.

Table 7: Participant information and measurement results for dermatological evaluation, skin moisture (Tewameter), and thermal camera. In the participants wearing microencapsulated products, a decrease in skin moisture values were observed in the abdomen by 5.7 \(\pm\) 4.4 g/h/m\({}^{2}\), in the upper leg by 4.2 \(\pm\) 2.6 g/h/m\({}^{2}\), and in the calf by 3.1 \(\pm\) 2.9 g/h/m\({}^{2}\). Conversely, in the control group, increases were noted: in the abdomen by 5.2 \(\pm\) 5.3 g/h/m\({}^{2}\), in the upper leg by 3.5 \(\pm\) 4.7 g/h/m\({}^{2}\), and in the calf by 1.2 \(\pm\) 4.5 g/h/m\({}^{2}\). It was concluded that the implementation of the sports activity program had no significant contribution to the change in skin moisture levels. Instead, the increase in skin moisture was effectively achieved through the use of microencapsulated products designed to enhance skin hydration. To evaluate the interaction among garment group, fabric type, and time with respect to skin moisture measurement results, Repeated Measures ANOVA tests were conducted. The results are provided in Table 9. \begin{table}
\begin{tabular}{c c c} \hline
**TEWL (g/h/m\({}^{2}\))** & **Interpretation** \\ \hline
0–10 & Very Healthy Condition \\
10–15 & Healthy Condition \\
15–25 & Normal Condition \\
25–30 & Strained Skin \\ \textgreater{}30 & Critical Condition \\ \hline \end{tabular}
