Effects of body posture on the interpretation of biomedical data obtained from manned missionsThe role that different body postures may have on the interpretation of inflight results is studied. The cardiovascular measurements taken in the upright position more closely approximated the findings from space flight in the short-duration missions. However, the supine position most approximated the long-duration missions.
