Changes in body height and scoliosis angle under the influence of gravity were studied in 40 patients with adolescent scoliosis. The average decrease in body height was 1% during a day. There were no significant changes in the mean angles of the scoliosis curves during the day. The patients were grouped according to age, standing and sitting heights, weight and skeletal maturation. A decrease in the scoliosis angles occurred in younger, more skeletally immature and lighter individuals, while an increase occurred in older, more skeletally mature and heavier individuals. The difference between the scoliosis angles measured from standing and supine views was also analyzed. The correction of the scoliosis angle in the supine position was on average 19%. No correlation was found between the change in angle and any of the growth factors studied. There was also no correlation between the change in angle and the degree of curvature.
对40例青少年脊柱侧弯患者在重力影响下的身高变化和脊柱侧弯角度进行了研究。一天中身高平均下降1%。白天脊柱侧弯曲线的平均角度无显著变化。患者根据年龄、站立和坐高、体重及骨骼成熟度进行分组。年龄较小、骨骼成熟度较低且体重较轻的个体脊柱侧弯角度减小,而年龄较大、骨骼成熟度较高且体重较重的个体脊柱侧弯角度增加。还分析了站立位和仰卧位测量的脊柱侧弯角度之间的差异。仰卧位时脊柱侧弯角度的平均矫正率为19%。未发现角度变化与所研究的任何生长因子之间存在相关性。角度变化与弯曲程度之间也无相关性。
