Figure 3
Right thoracic curvature is prominent after adolescence. (A) The side curvature was organized in collective three groups: neutral (from -1 degree to 1 degree), right (> +1 degree) and left (< -1 degree). The curvature pattern shifts to the right side in the adolescent group (p < 0.01) and in the adult group (p < 0.001) compared to the child group. (B) There was no significant difference in the curvature pattern between male and female.
