简要总结
The study population comprised patients with AIS who had applied to the outpatient clinic between January and June 2022. The patients were divided into two groups. Treatment group(TG) was instructed in specific scoliosis exercises, while the Control group(CG) was given exercises for the lower extremities. Each patient was included in a 12- week exercise program accompanied by a physiotherapist. The patients' quality of life, and paravertebral muscles were evaluated ultrasonographically before and after treatment.

结局指标
主要结局
Paravertebral Muscle Thickness in Ultrasonographic Measurements
时间窗: 12 weeks
A standard imaging protocol was employed for the transverse imaging of the thoracic and lumbar multifidus muscles. Pre- and post-exercise measurements were performed by the same physician who was blinded to the exercise program the patient received. This evaluator was a PMR physician with 3 years of experience in the field of ultrasound. For each ultrasound image, the examiner positioned the probe over the spinous process and then moved it laterally and proceeded to image the multifidus and deep thoracic paravertebral muscles on both the convex and concave sides of the apex with the patient positioned prone. Two images were obtained for each segment on each side. The mean of the two trials was employed for the purpose of data analysis.
The Turkish version of the Spinal Appearance Questionnaire (Tr-SGA)
时间窗: 12 weeks
The questionnaire comprises two distinct sections: one pertaining to appearance and the other to expectations. Each section contains a series of questions presented on a 5-point Likert scale.
次要结局
- The Short Form-36 Health Status Questionnaire (SF-36)(12 weeks)
