متن کاملThe Relationship Between Thoracic Kyphosis Curvature and Subacromial Space
Objective: Subacromial impingement syndrome has been described as the most common form of shoulder pathology. The literature suggests that the aetiology of subacromial impingement is multifactorial. These causes include anatomical and mechanical factors, rotator cuff pathology, glenohumeral instability, restrictive processes of the glenohumeral joint, imbalance of the muscles controlling the sc...
متن کاملThe Effect of Spine Strengthening Exercises and Posture Training on Functional Thoracic Hyper Kyphosis in Young Individuals
Background & Objective: Hyper- kyphosis negatively affects health status, physical mobility, and quality of life. Corrective exercise interventions are often utilized to manage subjects with thoracic hyper-hypnosis. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of multimodal spine strengthening exercises (spinal strengthening, spinal alignment and other such exercises for incr...
متن کاملKyphosis and decline in physical function over 15 years in older community-dwelling women: the Study of Osteoporotic Fractures.
BACKGROUND Maintaining physical function is an important prerequisite for preserving independence in later life. Greater degrees of kyphosis in the thoracic spine are prevalent in older persons and accompanied by reduced physical function in multiple cross-sectional studies. It is unknown whether kyphosis predicts worse physical function over time. METHODS We retrospectively assessed whether ...
متن کاملEvaluation of Thoracic Kyphosis Angle and Respiratory Functions in Patients with Multiple Sclerosis
Background. Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a chronic autoimmune demyelinating disease. Muscle weakness, tremors, balance disorders, and gait instability are observed in MS patients. Also, respiratory muscles weakness can lead to decreased respiratory capacity, resulting in pneumonia and acute respiratory failure. Objectives. This study evaluates thoracic kyphosis angle (TKA) and respiratory functi...
