Resumo: | Introduction. Scoliosis is characterized by three-dimensional, with deviations in the sagittal,
coronal, and horizontal planes. School constitute them as a risk group for this deformity by
going through the growth spurt phase of growth, coupled with other factors such as sitting for
long periods of time, asymmetric straps on school backpacks and/or backpacks overloaded
with school supplies, the use of inappropriate footwear, and other factors. Considering the
limited literature addressing the risk factors for scoliosis, this study aims to analyze the risk
factors for scoliosis in school. Methodology. This is a case-control study in schoolchildren of
Santa Cruz a Northeastern city in Brazil. We evaluated the presence of scoliosis, physical
activity, competitive sports practice and postural habits. In order to identify factors risk with
scoliosis, were estimated odds ratio (OR) and confidence intervals (95%) were estimated by
means of conditional multiple logistic regression. A significance level of 5% was used.
Results. Seventy-eight pairs participated in the study, totaling 156 students, including 86
girls and the average age of 13.88 years. In conditional logistic regression, physical activity
bivariate analysis showed statistical significance (p = 0.041) showing that those who practiced
little physical activity (irregularly active) have more risk of having scoliosis when compared
with active children (OR: 2.64; 95% CI: 1.18 to 5.89), however when compared with
sedentary school there was no statistical significance (p = 0.893). This significance remained
in the adjusted model, to be set by competitive sports practice and backpack transport. The
other variables were not statistically significant. Conclusions. Low physical activity is
presented as a risk factor for scoliosis in school and may indicate a physical activity as a
protective factor for scoliosis. |
