Abstract:
Objective:To understand prevalence and influencing factors of abnormal spinal curvature in primary and secondary school students aged 10-14 years in Inner Mongolia, and to provide reference for relevant measures.
Methods:A total of 92 094 primary and secondary school students aged 10-14 years were selected by multi stage cluster sampling, and were investigated with questionnaire.
Results:A total of 1 957 participants (2.13%) with abnormal spinal curvature were detected, including 1 768( 90.34 %) with scoliosis. Significant differences in the detection rate of abnormal spinal curvature were observed among students with different myopia status and posture of sitting and standing ( χ 2=23.82, 9.84, P <0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that different ethnic groups, monitoring points, age and area were main factors for risk of spinal curvature abnormalities in primary and secondary school students aged 10-14 years; good nutritional status, left right rotation of class seats, seat height adjustment according to height were associated with lower rate of spinal curvature abnormalities ( P <0.05).
Conclusion:Various measures should be taken simultaneously to reduce the prevalence of abnormal spinal curvature in primary and middle school students aged 10-14 years.
