An observational study in Scoliosis; Adolescence, Myofascial Pain Syndrome and Trigger Point Pain, Myofascial, sponsored by Kanuni Sultan Suleyman Training and Research Hospital. Completed at 1 site in Turkey. Open to participants aged 10 Years to 18 Years. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2022-06-27.
Sponsored by Kanuni Sultan Suleyman Training and Research Hospital · Observational
this is an observational and cross-sectional prevalence study. 10-18 years aged participants with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis were recruited in the study. Myofascial pain syndrome will be questioned to the participants. additionally, all participants will be evaluated using their findings for scoliosis and myofascial pain syndrome diagnostic criteria. Cobb angle, coronal balance, shoulder and pelvis asymmetry, sagittal spino-pelvic parameters of the spine (cervical lordosis, thoracic kyphosis, lumbar lordosis angles and sagittal vertical axis, sacral slop angle and pelvic incidence) will be measured.
This is an observational and cross-sectional prevalence study. Patients diagnosed with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis who applied to the Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Clinic of Kanuni Sultan Süleyman Training and Research Hospital will be included in our study. These participants will be aged between 10-18 years. These patients will be evaluated using their findings for scoliosis and myofascial pain syndrome diagnostic criteria. Cobb angle, coronal balance, shoulder and pelvis asymmetry, sagittal spino-pelvic parameters of the spine (cervical lordosis, thoracic kyphosis, lumbar lordosis angles and sagittal vertical axis, sacral slop angle and pelvic incidence) will be measured. Diagnostic criteria of Myofascial Pain Syndrome; As the Major Criteria;
Patients with a previous history of surgery for scoliosis and neuromuscular scoliosis were excluded from the study.
593 studies on the registry are indexed under Scoliosis; 138 are open to participants now.
This study's enrollment of 168 is above the median of 87 across 232 observational studies indexed under Scoliosis.

Aged between 10-18 years with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis
Exclusion Criteria:
the participants who has Cobb angle above 10 degrees and diagnosed with myofascial pain syndrome
Diagnostic Test: physical examination and measurement of spinal alignment
the participants who has Cobb angle above 10 degrees and without pain
Diagnostic Test: physical examination and measurement of spinal alignment
physical examination for scoliosis and myofascial pain syndrome, measurement of spinal coronal and sagittal alignment in X-ray, and pain intensity (with Visual analog scale) if necessary (for MPS group)
Cobb angle
The Cobb angle is the most widely used measurement to quantify the magnitude of spinal deformities, especially in the case of scoliosis, on plain radiographs. Scoliosis is defined as a lateral spinal curvature with a Cobb angle of \>10°
Time frame: 1 day
The angle of cervical lordosis
Cervical Lordosis refers to the natural curve of the spine in the neck, known as the cervical spine
Time frame: 1 day
The angle of thoracic kyphosis
thoracic Kyphosis is an abnormally excessive convex curvature of the spine as it occurs in the thoracic regions
Time frame: 1 day
The angle of lumbar lordosis
Lumbar lordosis is the inward curve of the lumbar, or lower, spine in the lower back
Time frame: 1 day
Sagittal vertical axis
he C7 plumb line is a radiographic reference to determine the sagittal vertical axis
Time frame: 1 day
pelvic incidence
Pelvic incidence is defined as the angle between a line perpendicular to the sacral plate at its midpoint and a line connecting this point to the femoral head axis.
Time frame: 1 day
sacral slope
Sacral slope isdefined as the angle between a sacral plate and the horizontal line. A vertical sacrum is described by a low sacral slope value and a horizontal sacrum by a high value sacral slope
Time frame: 1 day
pelvic tilt
Pelvic tilt is defined by a line through midpoint of the sacral plate and midpoint of the femoral head axes and the vertical line through the midpoint of the femoral head axis.
Time frame: 1 day
VAS
Visual analog scale (The grade of pain)
Time frame: 1day
Myfascial pain syndrome
Using by Myfascial pain syndrome diagnostic criteria
Time frame: 1 day
