Sagittal body alignment in a sitting position in children is not affected by the generalized joint hypermobility

Abstract Back pain may be related to an improper sitting position. The aim of the study was to assess the sagittal curvatures of the spine in a sitting position in children with generalized joint hypermobility (GJH). The study included 302 children aged 8–14 years. The sagittal curvatures of the spi...
