SCOLIOSIS

This study compared two specialized exercise programs for teens with mild to moderate scoliosis (spinal curvature). Thirty adolescents performed either the SEAS or BSPTS method, which involve specific postural corrections and strength exercises, to see which was better at stoppin…

This study tested a new, radiation-free method to monitor scoliosis in children. Researchers compared a 3D surface scan to standard X-rays to see if it could measure spinal curves just as accurately. The goal was to find a safer way to track the condition over time without repeat…

This study tested if adding a common steroid (dexamethasone) to a standard pain-blocking injection could provide longer-lasting pain relief for children after scoliosis surgery. It involved 60 teenagers aged 10-18. The main goal was to see if this method could delay the need for …

This study looked at two ways to manage pain after major back surgery to correct scoliosis. Researchers compared a newer numbing injection near the spine to standard IV anesthesia in 44 young patients. The goal was to see which method provided better pain relief and quality of li…

This study aimed to understand how a major spinal surgery affects walking in young patients with severe scoliosis. Researchers observed 6 patients under 18 years old, comparing their walking ability before surgery and again 6 months after. The goal was to gather information to he…

This study aimed to find a better way to predict which cases of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) will progress and get worse. Researchers tested 95 girls, aged 11-14, with mild scoliosis using a special balance platform (posturography) along with standard exams. The goal was…

This study aimed to understand if the size of the spinal curve (Cobb angle) in teens with scoliosis is linked to how much pain they feel or how they view their body. Researchers observed 78 adolescents with scoliosis, grouping them by mild, moderate, or more severe curves. They u…
