Assessment of Serum Vitamin D Levels in Surgical Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis Patients
In Brief
An observational study evaluating Blood test for Scoliosis Idiopathic and 2 related conditions. Completed, enrolled 60 participants.
Detailed Summary
This study aims to estimate the prevalence of vitamin D insufficiency among patients with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis, to calculate the differences in serum vitamin D levels, Cobb angles, spinal bone mass densities, and serum alkaline phosphatase levels between genders in the sample, and to assess the possibility of a correlation between any of these factors in those surgical patients.
Study Details
Timeline
Interventions
Serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D 25(OH) D levels were measured for Vitamin D status, by electrochemiluminescence immunoassay (Roche, USA). Cobb's angle measurement was done by measuring the major spinal curve and was taken from the upper end vertebra to the lower end vertebra through an x-ray for all the patients included in the study.
