Retrospective comparative cohort study.To compare radiographic parameters between adolescents with a greater body mass index (BMI) percentile to underweight individuals. Increased BMI percentile has been associated with increased complications after Retrospective comparative cohort study.To compare radiographic parameters between adolescents with a greater body mass index (BMI) percentile to underweight individuals.Increased BMI percentile has been associated with increased OBJECTIVE
To investigate whether there is a relationship between hiatus hernia (HH) and kyphosis or obesity in elderly Japanese persons.
BACKGROUND
The causes of HH in the elderly are unclear.
METHODS
We enrolled 147 consecutive patients aged over 50 years in this study. Endoscopic assessment of the
METHODS
Prospective, multicenter study of Scheuermann's kyphosis (SK) and adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) compared to a control group.
OBJECTIVE
Compare body mass index (BMI) and Scoliosis Research Society Questionnaire-22 (SRS-22) scores among two diagnosis and one control
BACKGROUND
Menopause would seem to exist as a period of accelerated changes for women and their upper torso mechanics. Whether these anthropometric changes reflect changes in pain states remains unclear. Plausible mechanisms of pain exist for the independent and combined effect of increasing breast
BACKGROUND
The use of intermediate screws in fractured vertebrae has been proposed to decrease the number of fused levels in thoracolumbar fractures and to enable short fixations. The aim of this study was to evaluate the results of this technique and to establish predictive factors involved in loss
METHODS
A multicenter retrospective study of preoperative characteristics and surgical outcomes in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS).
OBJECTIVE
To determine the effect of obesity on (i) curve magnitude at first presentation to an orthopedic surgeon, and (ii) surgical
BACKGROUND
Combined anterior/posterior (A/P) spinal fusion with instrumentation has been used for many years in the treatment of adult thoracolumbar and lumbar (TL/L) scoliosis. However, the risk factors for complications and poor clinical outcomes with this procedure are not well
The purpose of this study was to test a hypothesis that overweight patients with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis present with larger curves and achieve less surgical correction than do healthy weight counterparts. A total of 251 individuals were grouped by BMI into overweight (BMI% ≥85) and healthy
Given the paucity of literature regarding compensatory mechanisms used by obese patients with sagittal malalignment, it is necessary to gain a better understanding of the effects of obesity on compensation after comparing the degree of malalignment to age-adjusted ideals. This study To analyse and compare standing thoracolumbar curves in normal weight participants and participants with obesity, using an electromagnetic device, and to analyse the measurement reliability.
METHODS
Cross-sectional study was carried out. 36 individuals were divided into two groups (normal-weight and
METHODS
Retrospective.
OBJECTIVE
We aimed to determine if heavier patients with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) had more preserved thoracic kyphosis (TK), and as a result, more preserved pulmonary function.
BACKGROUND
Some believe that childhood weight is predictive of adult sagittal plane

The objectives of this study was to clarify the relationship between kyphosis and gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) by evaluation of spinal alignment, obesity, osteoporosis, back muscle strength, intake of oral drugs, and smoking and alcohol history in screening of a community
When operating on a child with a large myelomeningocele and kyphosis, coverage with skin of high quality and a supporting layer of subcutaneous tissue can be difficult. The dermal circulation in the newborn is finite and an extensive mobilisation of the skin is a risky venture. Between 1988 and 2003
