First seen Mar 16, 2026 · Last updated May 15, 2026 · Updated 10 times

Summary

This study tests whether a daily probiotic supplement (Bifidobacterium breve) can slow the worsening of spine curves in children aged 6 to 15 with mild to moderate scoliosis. Researchers will measure changes in spine angle and trunk rotation over time. The goal is to see if improving gut bacteria can help control the disease and prevent the need for more invasive treatments.
