Long-term internet usage may effect the posture of the person. Thismay cause the change of the gravity center and may effect the segmentaldegeneration. Methods:In Suleyman Demirel University, 168 medical students had internet addictionscale. The scores ≥81 accepted as internet addicted. Equal number ofadolescents who got the diagnosis of internet addicted and not had cervical/lumbarx-ray graphics. Sagittal alignments were evaluated by using Cobb’s method. Probableinternet addicted descriptiveanalysis, TwoStep Cluster Analysis, ANOVA, Independent Samples t-Test,Product-Moment Correlation, Mann-Whitney U analysis were used.Results: Nine(5,4%) students were internet addicted. There wasa significant difference between internet usage habits and internet addictionscores, but the highest difference was found between “intermittent+long timeusage” and “total usage in once”. There was only a negative(r = -.341) andsignificant relation(p= .021) between internet addiction and lumbar Cobb angle.As the score of internet usage increases, value of lumbar Cobb angle decreases.Only lumbar Cobb angle values were significantly different(p= .030) for devicesused for internet access. According to the Rank values, students’ lumbar Cobbangle using laptop as internet accessdevice(13,07) were lower than the students’ using cell phone or pads(21,07). Conclusion: Being in thesame and unsuited anatomical positionwhile using internet for a long time may cause changes in the sagittalalignment. Loadings and stresses on spinal structures influence the spinalmorphology and cause the occurrence of disc degeneration. KW - internet addiction KW - sagittal alignment KW - Cobb angle KW - sagittal vertical axis N2 - Amaç:İnternetkullanımının artması ile internet bağımlılığı riski de artmaktadır. Uzun süreliinternet kullanımı kişinin duruşunu etkileyebilmektedir. Bu durum, ağırlıkmerkezinin değişmesine ve segmental dejenerasyona neden olabilmektedir. Metod: Süleyman Demirel Üniversitesi’nde 168 tıp öğrencisineinternet bağımlılığı skalası uygulandı. ≥81 skoru olanlarınternet bağımlı olarak kabul edildi. Internet bağımlılığı tanısı almış vealmamış eşit sayıda adolesandan servikal / lomber dırekt grafiler alındı.Sagital dizilim Cobb metodu ile değerlendirildi. Olası internet bağımlıtanımlayıcı analiz, İkiBasamak Küme analizi, ANOVA, bağımsız örneklemet-testi,ürün-önem korelasyonu, Mann-Whitney U analizi kullanıldı.Sonuçlar: Dokuz öğrenci(%5,4) internet bağımlı idi. İnternet kullanımalışkanlıkları ile internet bağımlılık skoru arasında anlamlı fark tespitedildi, ancak en yüksek fark “aralıklı+uzun sure kullanan” ve “tek seferde total kullanan” grup arasındabulundu. Sadece internet bağımlılığı ve lomber Cobb açısı arasında negatif (r =-.341) ve belirgin bir ilişki (p= .021) vardı. İnternet kullanım skoruarttıkça, lomber Cobb açı değeri azalmaktaydı. İnternet kullanımındaki farklı cihazlariçin lomber Cobb açı değeri belirgin olarak farklıydı(p= .030). Rankdeğerlerine gore, laptop kullanan öğrencilerin lomber Cobb açı değeri(13,07),cep telefonu veya tablet kullananlardan(21,07) daha düşüktü. Sonuç: Uzun sureli internet kullanımında aynı ve uygunolmayan anatomik pozisyonda durmak sagittal dizilimde değişikliklere nedenolabilir. Spinal yapılar üzerindeki yüklenmeler ve stres spinal morfolojiyietkiler ve disk dejenerasyonlarının ortaya çıkmasına neden olur. CR - 1. Maroof KA, Parashar P, Bansal R.
