Cervicothoracic posture, including the craniovertebral angle, cervical lordosis angle, forward shoulder angle (FSA), and thoracic kyphosis angle, was assessed using the photographic method. Chest wall mobility, respiratory muscle strength, upper extremity function, physical activity level, and severity of fatigue were assessed. Pearson's correlation analysis revealed significant associations between respiratory muscle strength and cervicothoracic posture, as well as anthropometric measures. Multiple linear regression identified independent predictors of MIP and MEP, adjusting for potential confounders such as smoking.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The FSA demonstrated a weak but statistically significant correlation with both maximum inspiratory pressure (MIP) (r\u2009=\u2009\u22120.248, p\u2009=\u20090.021) and maximum expiratory pressure (MEP) (r\u2009=\u2009\u22120.219, p\u2009=\u20090.041). Axillary circumference measurements demonstrated a near-significant association with MEP (B\u2009=\u20094.93, p\u2009=\u20090.059). Upper extremity function did not correlate with cervicothoracic posture (p\u2009&gt;\u20090.005). The MEP was significantly associated with fatigue severity (B\u2009=\u2009\u2212 0.02, \u03b2\u2009=\u2009\u2212 0.323, p\u2009=\u20090.022).
