Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis in Siblings Treated by Surgical Deformity Correction.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) in siblings reflects genetic hypothesis; however, few studies have been published. Furthermore, to the best of our knowledge, there have been no reports in the literature of both siblings with AIS who underwent deformity corrections. A 15-year-old adolescent girl visited our clinic with back pain after recognition of the incidental findings of a scoliotic curve in the spine. Whole spine radiographs detected Lenke classification type 3CN. The patient underwent deformity correction with posterior instrumented fusion from T4 to L3 with thoracoplasty of the right 7th to 10th rib. Four years later, her 16-year-old younger brother also visited our clinic with back pain after recognition of the incidental findings of a scoliotic curve in the spine. Whole spine radiographs detected Lenke classification type 2AN. The patient underwent deformity correction with posterior instrumented fusion from T5 to L2 with thoracoplasty of the right 8th to 10th rib. In conclusion, we report on two siblings with AIS who underwent surgical treatment for different types of curves. They showed favorable outcomes after performing deformity correction with posterior instrumented fusion. Our rare case supports the underlying basis of genetic heterogeneity as a complex polygenic model.
