The aim of this study was to determine whether exercises can change the cervical angle and respiratory function in smartphone users.
Thirty healthy volunteers were recruited. The subjects were randomly divided into an exercise group and a control group. All participants used a smartphone for 1 hour while maintaining a sitting posture. Then, each group performed their assigned activity. The exercise group performed two types of exercises and the control group maintained routine activities for 20 minutes. To investigate the changes in cervical angle and respiratory function, we measured the craniovertebral angle by using a spirometer.
Statistically significant differences were noted in the craniovertebral angle, forced vital capacity (FVC), forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1), FEV1/FVC ratio, peak expiratory flow, maximal inspiratory pressure, and maximal expiratory pressure of the two groups ( < 0.05).
Our findings showed that proper exercise could be a good method of improving the cervical angle and respiratory function in smartphone users.
本研究旨在确定运动是否能改变智能手机使用者的颈椎角度和呼吸功能。
招募了30名健康志愿者。受试者被随机分为运动组和对照组。所有参与者在保持坐姿的情况下使用智能手机1小时。然后,每组进行各自分配的活动。运动组进行两种类型的运动,对照组进行20分钟的日常活动。为了研究颈椎角度和呼吸功能的变化,我们使用肺活量计测量颅椎角。
两组在颅椎角、用力肺活量(FVC)、第1秒用力呼气量(FEV1)、FEV1/FVC比值、呼气峰值流量、最大吸气压力和最大呼气压力方面存在统计学显著差异(<0.05)。
我们的研究结果表明,适当的运动可能是改善智能手机使用者颈椎角度和呼吸功能的好方法。
