To test the functional role of tetranectin directly, we have generated mice with a targeted disruption of the gene.

The aim of this study was to compare the thoracic kyphosis and lumbar lordosis of male and female yoga practitioners with non-practicing participants and to determine the possible dependencies between sagittal spinal curvatures and somatic parameters, time spent on yoga exercise, and undertaking other physical activities in yoga practitioners. Methods The study involved 576 women and 91 men ages 18–68 years (mean = 38.5 ± 9) who were practicing yoga, and 402 women and 176 men ages

Abstract:
Thoracic kyphosis is a common postural problem affecting over 20% of adolescents. This condition can contribute to various spinal problems, leading to a decreased ability to perform daily activities, reduced quality of life, and impaired pulmonary function.

We systematically searched the PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, and Scopus databases for articles relevant to adolescents with thoracic kyphosis that had been published up to 14 May 2024.
