Cervical sagittal alignment types and radiographic parameters were measured in the full-length spine X-ray. Three groups were assigned according to Toyama method: lordotic group, straight and sigmoid group, kyphotic group. Participants were stratified by gender and age, and differences in spinal parameters were analyzed. To determine factors influencing cervical sagittal alignment, a multinomial logistic regression was conducted.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      Among the 410 participants, 119 (29.0%) were classified as lordotic, 170 (41.5%) as straight, 5 (1.2%) as sigmoid, and 116 (28.3%) as kyphotic of the cervical sagittal alignment. Females exhibited a higher prevalence of kyphosis compared to males (35.8% vs 19.0%). Furthermore, kyphosis prevalence increased with age, from 0% in the 4-6-year-old group to 39.2% in the 16-18-year-old group. Strong positive correlations were observed between T1 slope and C2-C7 Cobb angle (r = 0.667,\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">P<\/jats:italic>\n                      &lt; 0.01), as well as between lumbar lordosis and sacral slope (r = 0.758,\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">P<\/jats:italic>\n                      &lt; 0.01).
