Decreased cortical bone density and mechanical strength with associated elevated bone turnover markers at peri-pubertal peak height velocity: a cross-sectional and longitudinal cohort study of 396 girls with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis
Abstract
Decreased cortical bone density and bone strength at peak height velocity (PHV) were noted in girls with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS). These findings could provide the link to the previously reported observation that low bone mineral density (BMD) could contribute as one of the prognostic factors for curve progression that mostly occurs during PHV in AIS.As part of the studies related to aetiopathogenesis of AIS, we assessed bone...
