Improving the Effectiveness of Conservative Treatment of Idiopathic Scoliosis Through Active Parental Participation During Inpatient Rehabilitation.

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
BACKGROUND/
objectivesThis is a study of adolescents with idiopathic scoliosis (IS), treated by the Functional Individual Therapy of Scoliosis (FITS) method. The hypothesis was that active parental involvement in the treatment process enhances the outcomes of therapy. MATERIALS AND
methodsA total of 208 adolescent girls with IS were examined and divided into two groups. Only in Group I were the parents present. Trunk morphology before and after was evaluated by measuring change of the Anterior Trunk Symmetry Index (ATSI), Posterior Trunk Symmetry Index (POTSI), Posterior Trunk Symmetry Index in Correction (POTSI COR), and the angle of trunk rotation (ATR).
resultsStatistically significant improvements in ATSI values were observed in both groups (Group I: CONCLUSION AND SIGNIFICANCE: Children with IS who underwent specific physiotherapy demonstrated better outcomes when their parents actively participated in the therapy.
