Compared with Normal (sitting upright with full support of the seat and flat backrest) posture, sitting in Off-Loading posture significantly shifted the center of the force and the peak pressure on the seat anteriorly towards the thighs.
The nonlinearity was more apparent in the flat supine posture than in the semi-supine postures.
In contrast, DOI-induced flat body posture (FBP), which has been linked to 5-HT1A receptor stimulation, was observed more readily in the HDS rats.
However, it is unlikely that the effect of MAK involves the 5-HT1A mechanisms, because we observed no serotonin syndrome-like behaviors (such as flat body posture, hind limb abduction, and forepaw treading) that are induced primarily by an agonism at 5-HT1 receptor subtypes [ 31] in the MAK-treated rats.
(By "this position" he means the stretched-out flat-backed posture that comes from leaning on one's elbows).
These include changes to overall gait pattern characterised by reduced walking velocity and shortened step and stride length [16] altered load and pressure distribution characteristic of both high-arch and flat-foot posture [8]; disturbance of the normal sagittal rocker function [17,30]; and muscle imbalance and reduced muscle strength [7,30].
My partner calls my preferred sleeping posture — flat on my back, toes pointed up, hands at sides – "the coffin".
