Prevalence of global spinal malalignment and the influence on LBP and HR-QOL in a healthy, nonelderly population. A cross sectional analysis, including bone mineral density, skeletal muscle mass index, and back muscle extensor strength

Prevalence of global spinal malalignment and the influence on LBP and HR-QOL in a healthy, nonelderly population. A cross sectional analysis, including bone mineral density, skeletal muscle mass index, and back muscle extensor strength

Background: In healthy, nonelderly populations, prevalence of 3 modifiers of global spinal malalignment (GS-MalAlign) (PT ≧20°, PI-LL≧10°, SVA≧40 mm) remains unknown. The clinical significance has not been determined. The purposes are to disclose the prevalence of the 3 modifiers of GS-MalAlign, and...
