The average baseline RPP in the prone position was significantly higher than the supine position (9.1 vs 2.7mmHg; p 0.05 for all). Overall, when combining all pressures at baseline and with irrigation, with all access sites and types of scopes, the mean RPP was significantly higher in the ...
So whileprone,supine, andprostratehave specific meanings with regard to position, they also come with situational connotations in many cases:pronesuggests exposure or vulnerability;supineconnotes a position of willful inactivity; andprostrateoften describes a giving in to forces of lethargy or submission...

Results: The variation of daily repositioning shifts for supine cohort was statistically significantly less than that for prone patients. The comparison of the daily setup plans shows that the variations in PTV D95 and D98 (dose received by 95% and 98% of PTV) are smaller for supine cohort ...
In contrast, in the prone imaging group all distal stones could be allocated accurately, either to the intramural UVJ or the urinary bladder (37 intramural UVJ stones and six bladder stones in prone scanning group vs. 21 intramural UVJ stones and one bladder stone when scanned supine)....

Heat loss of newborns was 8.4 % higher in supine than in prone position (HL supine 1.80 vs HL prone 1.66 Watt/kg, p<0.01). This increased HL in supine position was mainly due to increased heat loss from the axillary sites, dependent on arm positioning, the R lower abdomen and the ...
In the supine position, the V35 of the sigmoid colon was higher compared to the prone position (86.46% vs. 77.67%, p = 0.04). Rectal V10, V15, V20, and V25 were all higher in the prone position compared to the supine position (p<0.001 for all comparisons). The prone bladder V15...
