Factors determining cervical spine sagittal balance in asymptomatic adults: correlation with spinopelvic balance and thoracic inlet alignment.
TLDR
T1 slope was a key factor determining cervical spine sagittal balance and both spinopelvic balance and TI alignment have a significant influence on cervical spine Sagittal balance via T1 slope, but TIA had a stronger effect than TK.About:

Journal ArticleDOI
Relationship Between T1 Slope and Cervical Alignment Following Multilevel Posterior Cervical Fusion Surgery: Impact of T1 Slope Minus Cervical Lordosis.
TL;DR: This study showed that disability of the neck increased with cervical sagittal malalignment following surgical reconstruction and a greater T1S-CL mismatch was associated with a greater degree of cervical malal alignment.

TL;DR: Age-based normative sagittal alignment parameters in the adult spine with complete visualization from the occiput to the feet are described and compensatory changes that occur to maintain sagittal balance are described.

TL;DR: Sagittal parameters of cervical spine were significantly worse in males than females, helping to explain the greater prevalence of cervical spondylotic myelopathy among elderly males.

Influence of T1 Slope on the Cervical Sagittal Balance in Degenerative Cervical Spine: An Analysis Using Kinematic MRI.
Chong Weng,Justin Wang,Alexander Tuchman,Jian Wang,Changfeng Fu,Patrick C. Hsieh,Zorica Buser,Jeffrey C. Wang +7 more
TL;DR: Cervical spine kMRI of 83 patients with degenerative cervical spine conditions was analyzed and cranial tilt was the cervical parameter most strongly correlated with SVA C2–C7, and thus may be a good parameter to assess decompensation of cervical sagittal balance.

Variations in Occipitocervical and Cervicothoracic Alignment Parameters Based on Age: A Prospective Study of Asymptomatic Volunteers Using Full-Body Radiographs.

TL;DR: Age-stratified normative values of novel occipitocervical, cervical, and cervicothoracic alignment parameters are presented using a novel biplanar radiographic imaging technique to provide surgeons with an intuitive way to account for the position of the orbit when planning cervical deformity correction.

Journal ArticleDOI
Pelvic incidence: a fundamental pelvic parameter for three-dimensional regulation of spinal sagittal curves
TL;DR: An anatomical parameter, the pelvic incidence, appears to be the main axis of the sagittal balance of the spine, which controls spinal curves in accordance with the adaptability of the other parameters.
Journal ArticleDOI
Classification of the normal variation in the sagittal alignment of the human lumbar spine and pelvis in the standing position.
TL;DR: To describe, quantify, and classify common variations in the sagittal alignment of the spine, sacrum, and pelvis may help to discover the association between spinal balance and the development of degenerative changes in the spine.
Journal ArticleDOI
Radiographic analysis of the sagittal alignment and balance of the spine in asymptomatic subjects.
TL;DR: The T9 sagittal offset, reflecting the sagittal balance of the spine, was dependent on three separate factors: a linear combination of the pelvic incidence, maximum lumbar lordosis, and sacral slope; the pelvic tilt; and the thoracic kyphosis.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Barycentremetric study of the sagittal shape of spine and pelvis: the conditions required for an economic standing position.
TL;DR: Basic data is provided suggesting that there is a tendency to maintain the body in the most economical position in terms of muscle fatigue and vertebral strain and the way in which these loads vary when the spinal curves and the pelvic slope change is described.

TL;DR: The biomechanical and clinical conditions of the standing posture (as in scoliosis, low back pain, spondylisthesis, spine surgery, obesity and postural impairments) can be studied by comparing the measured lordosis with the predicted lordosis.
