Zhejiang Adolescent Spine and Vision Health Cohort: A Longitudinal Database Analysis
Condition(s) studied
Study summary
The aim of study: 1. To investigate the prevalence of scoliosis, other spinal deformities, myopia, and visual impairments in adolescents (aged 6-18) in Zhejiang Province.
2.To track 8-year dynamic changes in spinal curvature and analyze associations between scoliosis, vision disorders, and potential risk factors.
3.To deliver scoliosis health education during screenings.
4.To mitigate scoliosis progression through early detection and intervention.
Eligibility
Primary outcome measure(s)
- Scoliosis Curve Angle — Baseline, 24 months (±1 month), and 48 months (±1 month) after enrollment; data will be analyzed through study completion, up to 96 months.]
A long standard standing whole spine radiograph will be used for measuring curve size in terms of Cobb angle according to the standard Cobb method - Angle of Trunk Rotation — Baseline, 24 months (±1 month), and 48 months (±1 month) after enrollment; data will be analyzed through study completion, up to 96 months.]
In addition to spinal x-rays, a Scoliometer can also help monitor curve progression. The Scoliometer is an inclinometer that measures the asymmetries between the sides of the trunk by measuring axial rotation in degrees. Numerous studies have found a high correlation between trunk axial rotation (ATR) values and the Cobb angles.
