How to use "Most pinched" in context?
Most people know of the pinch, the sensation of being tightly squeezed in someone's hand. But what about the other extreme? What about when somebody's arm or leg falls asleep? That's what researchers at the University of California, San Francisco, wanted to find out. So they recruited 10 people, who were asked to lie down with their arm at their side and their leg bent at the knee. Then, the researchers slowly and gently crushed the subjects' fingers one at a time until they reached a voluntary hand movement. The results? Most people reported feeling a pinch in their index finger when their arm was squeezed and in their thumb when their leg was asleep.
