The purpose of this study was to examine the health status of early adolescent patients with idiopathic scoliosis using depression-anxiety scales, a generic Quality-of-Life Inventory as well as the Scoliosis Research Society-22 (SRS-22) questionnaire to search for the most comprehensive approach for the measurement of outcomes. Thirty-seven early adolescent patients with idiopathic scoliosis were analyzed within 6-12 months of the postoperative time period. There was no statistically significant correlation between the total score of SRS-22 and the total scores of the pediatric quality-of-life inventory. However, the total scores of SRS-22 were positively correlated with the self-esteem level and negatively correlated with the depression level and State-Trait Anxiety Inventory for Children scores. In early adolescents with idiopathic scoliosis deformity correction, SRS-22 may be inadequate in terms of mental health and physical activity parameters to evaluate overall quality of life.

Background: Recent studies have suggested that high-dose tranexamic acid (TXA) may be an effective method for reducing blood loss during adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) surgery. This study aims to perform a systematic review and meta-analysis to compare the outcomes of high-dose versus low-dose TXA for AIS surgery.
Methods: Searches were conducted in major databases such as PubMed, Scopus, Google Scholar, and Cochrane Library for relevant studies comparing high-dose and low-dose TXA outcomes in terms of blood loss, red blood cell transfusions, and hemoglobin changes.
Critical Evaluation of the 2016 SOSORT Clinical Guidelines on the Detection and Clinical Management of Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis Using the AGREE II Tool: A Chiropractic Perspective.

Department of Chiropractic, Université du Québec à Trois-Rivières, Trois-Rivières, Québec, Canada.
Objective: The objective of this study is to assess the methodological quality of the 2016 Society on Scoliosis Orthopaedic and Rehabilitation Treatment (SOSORT) guidelines for the detection and management of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis.
Methods: A diverse group of experts, including practicing chiropractors, chiropractors with a Diplomate by the American Chiropractic Board of Radiology, chiropractors with PhD degrees, and chiropractors involved in teaching within chiropractic programs was invited to participate in the study. Experts independently evaluated the guidelines using the Appraisal of Guidelines for Research and Evaluation II tool.
AIS patients have improved total SRS-22r self-image and satisfaction scores relative to pre-op at 10-year follow-up regardless of Lenke type.

Purpose: Few studies have investigated quality-of-life (QoL)-related outcome measures in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) patients over long-term follow-up. We investigated whether patients with any given Lenke type improved relative to other types and whether selective fusions resulted in better QoL-related outcome measures.
Methods: We utilized the Harms Study Group database to select patients with AIS who underwent posterior spinal fusion (PSF) with Scoliosis Research Society questionnaire-22 revised (SRS-22r) scores at minimum 10-year follow-up.
Asymmetry in the Onset of Paraspinal Muscles Activity Differs in Adolescents With Idiopathic Scoliosis Compared With Those With a Symmetrical Spine.

School of Biomedical Sciences, The University of Queensland, St. Lucia, Australia.
Background: Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) is characterized by an asymmetrical formation of the spine and ribcage. Recent work provides evidence of asymmetrical (right versus left side) paraspinal muscle size, composition, and activation amplitude in adolescents with AIS. Each of these factors influences muscle force generation.
