| Résumé : | Background A myofascial sling is a chain of anatomically interconnected muscles. Anatomical slings work by transferring forces between upper and lower limbs while maintaining a steady core. Middle Crossed Syndrome refers to an imbalance in the transverse plane musculature through sling systems of the trunk; often associated with laterality patterns. Objective The primary objective of this study was to find the prevalence of Middle Crossed Syndrome(MCS) and secondary objective was to find an association of MCS with leg dominance in young healthy individuals. Methods This observational study, included 382 participants aged 19?26 years. The participants were screened for presence of Middle Crossed Syndrome using Supine Lateral Ball Roll Test, Active Straight Leg Raise and Gait Parameters (step length, stride length, degree of toe out, cadence, base of support). Results The results were obtained by statistical analysis using Chi-square test for prevalence of MCS in young healthy individuals with respect to age groups, gender and leg dominance. Of the total 382 screened, 25 (69.37%) were positive either unilaterally or bilaterally for MCS. Conclusion The study concluded that over half of the participants clinically tested positive for MCS with no correltion of MCS with leg dominance. |
