The onset inflammatory parameters and the Cobb angle in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis: a case-control study

This is the first study to evaluate CAR in AIS, demonstrating its significant association with the Cobb angle, alongside NLR and MLR. As inexpensive and readily available markers, CAR and NLR may help in diagnosing AIS, but their role in risk stratification and disease monitoring requires confirmation in future prospective studies.
