A Novel Decomposition‐Based Growth Model for Simulating Stress‐Modulated Spinal Growth

International Journal for Numerical Methods in Biomedical Engineering, Volume 42, Issue 6, June 2026.
This study introduces the first decomposition‐based finite‐strain growth model for a simplified Functional Spinal Unit, where growth occurs simultaneously with mechanical loading. The approach eliminates the major physical inconsistency of sequential methods—growth in an artificial stress‐free configuration—while preventing mesh distortion and ...

Adolescents With Idiopathic Scoliosis Are Not Osteoporotic

Spine, 2008
Case controlled study.To explore the relative effects of body mass index (BMI) and the presence or absence of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) on bone mineral density (BMD) as evidenced by Z-scores in adolescents.Prior studies have identified adolescents with idiopathic scoliosis as having "osteoporosis" or "osteopenia," when only a small ...

Corrective exercises specific for adolescent idiopathic scoliosis presented with bilateral leg pain: a case report describing an adaptive program and the recorded improvement as expressed by Cobb angle

, 2020
Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis is considered as the most common type of scoliosis. A 13-year-old female complained of bilateral leg pain, left > right, and severe headache. She was referred to an orthopaedic physical therapy clinic.

Effects of Bracing in Adolescents with Idiopathic Scoliosis

New England Journal of Medicine, 2013
The role of bracing in patients with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis who are at risk for curve progression and eventual surgery is controversial.We conducted a multicenter study that included patients with typical indications for bracing due to their age, skeletal immaturity, and degree of scoliosis.

Deletion of a Pax1 Sex‐Associated Genomic Region Associated With Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis Leads to Disc Degeneration, Instability, and Vertebral Rotation in Mice

JOR SPINE, Volume 9, Issue 2, June 2026.
Overview of the effects of Pax1‐SAR deletion on gene expression, IVD degeneration, and resultant scoliotic‐like curvature between sexes. Proposed mechanism of sex‐dependent changes in gene expression in females (right) and males (left), resulting in sex‐dependent disc degeneration and scoliotic phenotypes.

Screening and methodological studies on Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis

, 2015
Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) is a complex three dimensional deformity of the spine that affects 2-3 % of healthy adolescents. The cause is not known although genetic, hormonal, and environmental factors are involved.

Hidden blood loss in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis patients undergoing posterior spinal fusion surgery: a retrospective study of 765 cases at a single centre

BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2021
Background In scoliosis corrective surgery, total blood loss is composed of visible blood loss, including intraoperative haemorrhage and drainage, and hidden blood loss in which blood extravasates into the tissues and accumulates in the surgical field ...

Distal Adding‐On After Selective Thoracolumbar/Lumbar Fusion for Lenke 5C AIS: The Role of Proximal Coronal Construct Position and Postoperative UIV Translation

Orthopaedic Surgery, Volume 18, Issue 6, Page 1191-1202, June 2026.
In 74 Lenke 5C AIS patients undergoing selective thoracolumbar/lumbar fusion, distal adding‐on occurred in 18 (24%) at ≥ 2‐year follow‐up. Multivariable analysis identified postoperative upper instrumented vertebra translation as an independent factor associated with adding‐on, highlighting the importance of construct‐level coronal alignment beyond LIV

Genetic aspects of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis in a family with multiple affected members: a research article

, 2010
\ud \ud \ud \ud Background\ud \ud The etiology of idiopathic scoliosis remains unknown and different factors have been suggested as causal. Hereditary factors can also determine the etiology of the disease; however, the pattern of inheritance remains ...
