Sitting Posture of Subjects With Postural Backache
Journal of Manipulative and Physiological Therapeutics, 2006To test the construct validity of postural backache. To identify if individuals with backache sit for longer periods of sustained sitting and have more flexed relaxed sitting posture than individuals in a no backache group.Following an initial questionnaire, student volunteers without a history of 'serious' back pain were classified as either postural ...

C. still represents the best to be found anywhere, not only in art, but also in physical perfection of form. "A sound mind in a sound body" was their slogan and their standard.

Posture recording: A model for sitting posture
Applied Ergonomics, 1989A model for posture recording has been developed in order to provide for some features of sitting. Briefly, these features were related to seated subjects undergoing classroom activities, for whom positions of different body segments had to recorded as accurately as possible.

British Dental Journal, 1981
Orthodontists have never agreed as to whether the tongue plays a primarily adaptive role in dental abnormalities or whether, at times, it can create a malocclusion. An hypothesis is put forward suggesting that, in the short term, the former is true but that, in the long term, bone will respond to posture.

Postural Pseudoanemia: Posture-Dependent Change in Hematocrit [PDF]
Mayo Clinic Proceedings, 2005 To determine the magnitude of posture-related changes in blood components.Twenty-eight healthy subjects were studied between 1995 and 2004 at the Vanderbilt Autonomic Dysfunction Center, Nashville, Tenn. Lying and standing plasma volume (PV) and hematocrit (Hct) values were determined for each subject.Individual PV decreases on standing ranged from 6 ...

Ethical Postures and Ethical Posturing
The American Review of Public Administration, 1983It seems* plausible to suppose that "the desire to do good" is a significant motive for many who choose a career in the public service.

The Laryngoscope, 1994
AbstractComputer‐assisted open catheter studies of 10 healthy, nose‐breathing men in dorsal and in lateral recumbent sleep demonstrated stable intrasubject transpharyngeal differential pressures and airflow resistances. They averaged 19.6 Pa (± standard deviation [SD] 11.9) and 0.103 Pa/cm3 per second (± SD 0.065) in the dorsal posture and stage II ...

Postural hypotension is a common and important problem in elderly patients and necessitates a careful review of medication and lifestyle factors which may precipitate it. Drugs to be avoided if possible include diuretics, alpha-adrenoceptor blocking agents and nitrates.

Postural control is scaled to level of postural threat
Gait & Posture, 2000This study investigated control of posture when standing at different surface heights above ground level. Alterations in surface height were used to modify threat to postural control. Sixty-two healthy adults (mean+/-S.D.=20.3+/-1.3 years) stood quietly on a force plate 40 cm (LOW threat), 100 cm (MEDIUM threat) or 160 cm (HIGH threat) above ground ...
