At five schools in the city of Bochum a serial study was carried out with regard to pathological posture of the spine. In total 2075 pupils from 10 to 17 years of age were examined and the degree of kyphosis was determined using Debrunner's kyphometer. An angle of 40 degrees or more was supposed to be a pathological kyphosis. The rate of this kyphosis was 12 p.c. in girls and 15.3 in boys. The children with pathological curvature were compared with a group of children inconspicuous with regard to posture and selected by random. The two groups were questioned using a halfstandardized questionnaire. This was designed to obtain details of general circumstances of life, attitude in sports and medical history either in orthopedics and diseases in the family. Thereby was seen that children with pathological kyphosis practised less sports and had more orthopedic diseases, and also in their families more orthopedic problems and back pain occurred.
在波鸿市的五所学校开展了一项关于脊柱病理姿势的系列研究。总共对2075名10至17岁的学生进行了检查，并使用德布勒纳后凸计确定脊柱后凸程度。40度及以上的角度被视为病理性脊柱后凸。这种脊柱后凸的发生率在女孩中为12%，在男孩中为15.3%。将有病理弯曲的儿童与一组姿势正常的随机选择的儿童进行比较。使用半标准化问卷对两组儿童进行询问。该问卷旨在获取生活一般情况、运动态度以及骨科病史和家族疾病方面的详细信息。由此发现，患有病理性脊柱后凸的儿童运动较少，患有更多骨科疾病，而且他们的家庭中也出现更多骨科问题和背痛。
