Cervical Lordosis: Imaging Position and Measurement

This retrospective cross-sectional study aims to compare cervical lordosis measurements obtained from standing lateral radiographs and supine magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in individuals without structural cervical pathology. The study also evaluates the independent contribution of T1 slope to cervical alignment and investigates whether imaging modality significantly alters measured lordosis values.

Investigating Association Between Spine, Scapular, Shoulder and Core in Swimmers

The aim of this observational study is to investigate relationship between cervical, thoracic, lumbar and thoracolumbar spine posture, spine movement, isometric and eccentric shoulder strength, scapular dyskinesis and core muscle endurance in healthy competitive young swimmers in comparison with healthy recreational swimmers. The main question is whether spine posture affects spine movement, shoulder strength, scapular dyskinesia and core endurance. Participants will asked to complete a warm up period, after that spine posture, spine movement, scapular dyskinesia, shoulder strength and core endurance will be assessed by examiner. Researchers will compare competitive swimmer group and recreational swimmer group. Additionally correlation between spine posture, spine movement, scapular dyskinesia, shoulder strength and core muscle endurance will be investigated in competitive swimmer group. Aim of the study is to determine whether posture have any effect upon these parameters.

Exploring Heart Rate Variability, EEG Pattern, and Corticomuscular Coherence After Cervical Sagittal Alignment Restoration

The goal of this Randomized clinical trial is to learn about how fixing neck curvature and head posture right away affects heart rate, brainwaves, and muscle coordination in college athletes. The main question it aims to answer: \- Whether forward head posture (FHP) may play a crucial role in affecting heart rate variability, brainwaves, and muscle coordination.
