- Abstract
- Objectives This study was designed to investigate the correlation between the forwardhead posture and the spinal alignment. Methods We examined the whole spine x-rays of the 144 student sample. We measuredthe Craniovertebral angle (CVA), Cervical angle (CA), Thoracic kyphotic angle (TKA),lumbar lordosis angle (LLA) and Ferguson’s angle (FA) of the students. We then analyzedthe relationship between these angles. Results CVA had correlation with CA, but it was weak. There was significant correlationbetween CVA and TKA. There were no significant correlation among CVA, LLA and FA. Conclusions According to above results, there is a negative relationship between theCVA and the TKA - in that higher CVAs yielded lower TKAs. But CVA had no significantcorrelation with LLA or FA.
