Lower Bone Mineral Density is Associated with Severity of Deformity in Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis
AIS patient with lower BMD exhibited significantly larger Cobb angles, indicating the potential role of low BMD in curve progression. These findings suggest that addressing bone health in AIS patients could offer new strategies for mitigating curve severely.
