Table 1. Comparison of pulmonary function and kyphosis angle in pre-test and post-test of control group (N=10)

Pre test Post test t value p value
Pulmonary function (%) FVC (L) 4.34±1.13 4.19±1.07 2.74 0.02
FEV1 (L/sec) 3.49±0.64 3.49±0.65 −0.30 0.77
PEF(L/sec) 5.62±0.92 5.67±1.16 −0.027 0.80
Kyphosis (deg) 43.50±0.97 43.40±0.95 0.29 0.78
Data are expressed as mean±SD. FVC, forced vital capacity; FEV1, forced expiratory volume in 1sec; PEF, peak expiratory flow; * p<0.05.
