Brief Summary
|
The craniovertebral angle (CVA), which measures neck
posture and mobility, is crucial for evaluating musculoskeletal health. Despite
the fact that changes in neck mobility and posture have been linked to factors
such as body mass index (BMI) and hip-to-waist ratio, particularly across
genders, they have not been thoroughly determined. This
research aims to examine the variations in correlations between neck mobility,
craniovertebral angle, BMI and Hip waist ratio across both gender. A cross-sectional study was conducted with a group
of individuals recruited on basis of selection criteria. A goniometer will be
used to measure neck mobility. Kinovea software will be used to evaluate CVA.
The BMI and Hip waist ratio will be estimated using anthropometric measures.Data will be analyzed using the Statistical Package
for Social Sciences (SPSS) 26.0 software. Normality test will be used to
establish the normality of the data. According to normality of the data the
parametric and non-parametric test will be used to evaluate the relationship
between BMI, CVA, Hip waist ratio and gender differences. |
