Summary

This study looked at whether teens with idiopathic scoliosis (a spine curve) have different pelvic floor muscle activity compared to healthy teens. Researchers measured muscle activation using a special device and also checked quality of life. The goal was to better understand how scoliosis affects these core muscles, not to provide treatment. About 20 teens took part.
