Abstract:Background: Studies have investigated the effects of backpacks and their loadings on the physiological spinal curvature changes in school-aged children and adolescents across different anatomical planes of motion. However, the dose-response relationship between varying backpack weights and changes in spinal physiological curvature remains unclear due to the uniformity of study protocols. Objective: The purpose of this systematic review is to explore the sagittal vertebral column bend change induced by backpack… Show more
