lordosis

The relationship between levels of exogenous hormones and the display of lordosis by the female rat.

If you display normal lordosis the thickest part of your hand will just fill the gap between the wall and the back.

Too much lordotic curving is called swayback (lordosis).

(26,27) Loss of lordosis has been shown to increase the risk of cervical spine injuries.

Bed dystocia occurs when the baby's progress is halted due to, firstly, reduction of the woman's lumbar spine curvature (lordosis), secondly, the backward tilting of the pelvis and, thirdly, entrapment of the sacrum by maternal weight, all of which can occur if the woman is lying on a firm bed.

The most frequently found defects were as follows: protruding scapulae (49.7% of evaluated children), increased lumbar lordosis (31.7%), and round back (31.4%).

The study included 22 healthy volunteers (mean age, 34 years; weight 67 kg; height 169 cm) with no history of back pain or surgery who underwent measurements of lumbar lordosis angles, intervertebral disk heights, and translation of the nucleus pulposus using a 0.6-tesla whole-body, positional MRI scanner.

At follow-up 5 years later, "the relationship between thoracic kyphosis and lumbar lordosis increased from 3.5 degrees to 13.1 degrees," the investigators reported (Phys.

Housing adult female rats on corncob bedding blocked female sexual behavior (lordosis), but we have not evaluated the effects of the LTX-diols on this parameter.

Both curving and rotation are inseparable and sometimes are associated with kyphosis (humpback) and lordosis (swayback).
