“…Particularly, displacement of the center of gravity from vertebral compressive fractures has been reported to negatively affect a patient's quality of life (Miyakoshi, 2008), to decrease the stride width due to restriction of the hip joint range (White and Panjabi, 1990) and to promote visceral disease. Therefore, quantitative evaluation of biological internal forces, such as the load generated between the vertebral bodies and the force of the trunk muscles, can likely be applied to new treatment and preventive methods by clarifying the cause of the spinal deformity or compression fracture (Sinaki et al, 2005, Adam et al, 2008, Bruno et al, 2012, Finocchiaro et al, 2012, Wood et al, 2014.…”
