An investigation of postural and chair design impacts upon seat pan interface pressure has been performed in an effort to identify whether differences in posture or chair design result in greater pressure differences.
Our exposure measure is therefore unlikely to be very sensitive to differences in posture, and we also did not examine breaks in sedentary time, which have been shown to be associated with waist circumference [ 10, 29].
An extra appraisal item, 'Sensitivity of outcome tool' was added to the published tool since the use of an insensitive outcome tool may have meant that differences in posture between conditions were not measured, significantly impacting on study outcomes [ 28].
The differences in posture between the groups (Group 1, weight of backpack less than 10% of child's body weight, and Group 2, backpack heavier than 10% of child's body weight) were determined using the Mann-Whitney U test, which is equivalent to nonparametric variance.
To investigate whether there is a difference in the posture of school children walking with a backpack versus pulling a trolley.
I really did notice a difference in my posture when I wore the shoe, and it seemed to carry over, at least temporarily, on days when I did not wear the shoe.
Comparing the biological litters of C57 and DBA mice, we can see that the overall lower bodyweight of DBA mice is due to a strain difference, rather than a difference in nursing posture.
Despite this, there was a difference in neck posture during reaching activities between controls and patients with neck pain.
However, differences in foot posture have been demonstrated between patients with medial compartment osteoarthritis of the knee and osteoarthritis of the hip, and guidelines for managing these patients include interventions such as orthotics which presume foot assessment.
