How does the sagittal spinal balance of the scoliotic population deviate from the asymptomatic population?

摘要

BackgroundPreviously, the sagittal spinal balance in both asymptomatic and scoliotic Caucasian people has been characterized and compared. Very recently, the sagittal spino-pelvic parameters among asymptomatic Chinese adults have been studied, and the results were compared with Caucasian adults, indicating that a difference did exist. Unfortunately, the distribution of sagittal standing posture patterns among the Chinese population has not been characterized in either asymptomatic or scoliotic groups.
