Highlights of Clinical Research by ScoliSMART
79% of patients achieved a curve correction of an average between 10-12 degrees
Pain and Radiographic Outcomes in Adult Idiopathic Scoliosis Patients Using a Scoliosis Activity Suit: An 18-Month Case Controlled Chart Review
79% of patients achieved a curve correction of an average between 10-12 degrees
Pain and Radiographic Outcomes in Adult Idiopathic Scoliosis Patients Using a Scoliosis Activity Suit: An 18-Month Case Controlled Chart Review
AIS patients were able to prevent their curves from progressing during growth, while those participating in an observation-only strategy saw their curves progress to beyond threshold where rigid brace prescription is recommended
Early Intervention versus Standard of Care for Mild Idiopathic Scoliosis: A Case-Controlled Series Based on Sosort Criteria Evaluating the Impact of a Scoliosis Activity Suit
51.7% of patients achieved curve correction and 38.3% achieved stabilization. In the curve correction group, average total correction was 12.75°
Chiropractic Rehabilitation for Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis: End-of-Growth and Skeletal Maturity Results
Patients with progressive idiopathic scoliosis showed significantly different neurotransmitter levels compared to mild scoliosis and those without scoliosis.
Association between Urinary Neurotransmitter Status and Scoliosis Progression: A Case-Controlled Series
while 19% remained stable until skeletal maturity. None of the patients progressed
Chiropractic Rehabilitation Plus Nighttime Bracing for Progressive Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis: A Case-Controlled Series Read the Study
Patients with idiopathic scoliosis had a significantly higher number of genetic variants compared to non-scoliosis patients. Scoliosis patients whose curves exceeded the surgical threshold of 50 degrees had a significantly higher number of genetic variants compared to those below 50 degrees.
Functional genomic variant patterns in Caucasian patients diagnosed with idiopathic scoliosis: a controlled, observational study
The spinal fusion group achieved significant improvements in Cobb angle, pain scores, and quality of life rating after 6 months.
Clinical outcomes of a scoliosis activity suit worn by patients with chronic post-fusion pain: 6-month case-controlled results.
Patients with idiopathic scoliosis were 2-3 times more likely to have a single or double MTHFR gene variant compared to non-scoliosis patients.
Methylenetetrahydrofolate Reductase (MTHFR) Gene Mutations in Patients with Idiopathic Scoliosis: A Clinical Chart Review
Patients participating in a neurotransmitter rebalancing program along with scoliosis-specific exercises sustained 3 times as much Cobb angle correction as compared to those only doing scoliosis-specific exercises.
