Abstract

Introduction: Although it is thought that abdominal adiposity is one of the risk factor for postural deviation, such as increased lumbar lordosis, the studies in the literature only explored the effects of body mass index on spinal alignment and postural changes. The aim of this study was to investigate the correlation with detailed body composition and spine alignment in healthy young adults.
