Neurohumoral regulation in children with idiopathic scoliosis.

Biotesting of blood serum in children aged 8-15 with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (0°-60° by Cobb) showed the change of neurohumoral regulation in comparison with the age norm. The degree and direction of changes in the biotesting give the indication of the progression of spinal deformity. The effectiveness of treatment can be judged by control biotesting.
