Official Title: Investigation of the Relationship Between Core Stability and Respiratory Parameters in Children With Thoracic Hyperkyphosis
Brief Summary:
Hyperkyphosis, defined as an excessive curvature of the thoracic spine beyond normal limits, is among the factors that reduce chest wall mobility and lung function.In modern society, increased sitting durations contribute to increased thoracic kyphosis.Studies have indicated that an increase in thoracic kyphosis and a decrease in thoracic spinal mobility are associated with reduced respiratory functions, such as forced vital capacity (FVC) and forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1).The diaphragm forms the…
