Three-dimensional trunk adjustment based on surface markers in treating mild to moderate adolescent idiopathic scoliosis.

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: Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) has both physical and psychological impacts, requiring multidisciplinary non-surgical interventions. Incorporating three-dimensional (3D) adjustments may enhance the efficacy of traditional exercises. This study aimed to explore the clinical effect of integrating trunk 3D adjustments with conventional rehabilitation exercises in the treatment of children with mild to moderate AIS. Methods: This study enrolled AIS patients treated at our hospital. Participants were assigned to either the combined therapy group, receiving trunk 3D adjustment and traditional rehabilitation, or the traditional therapy group, receiving traditional rehabilitation alone. The primary outcomes were the Cobb angle and angle of trunk rotation (ATR). Results: A total of 46 children were included, 23 in each group, with median ages of 12 and 13 years for the traditional and combined therapy groups, respectively. Baseline characteristics showed no differences (all Conclusion: The integration of trunk 3D adjustment with conventional rehabilitation training effectively improves Cobb angle and ATR in mild to moderate AIS patients, highlighting the importance and potential of body alignment awareness for clinical treatment.
