Data was shown as median and interquartile range (M (q1-q3)).
C: the control group, which were exposed to clean air. L: the low concentration group, which were exposed to 27.45 mg/m³ moxa smoke. M: the medium concentration group, which were exposed to 168.76 mg/m³ moxa smoke. H: the high concentration group, which were exposed to 384.67 mg/m³ moxa smoke.
Sig, the significance for data among the groups. “” p<0.05 vs C group.
