NCT03820895

Brief 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.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • measure vitamin D level in AIS patients

    Serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D 25(OH) D levels were measured for Vitamin D status, by electrochemiluminescence immunoassay (Roche, USA).

    Baseline

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • calculate Cobb's angle in AIS patients

    Baseline

  • measure BMD values in AIS patients

    Baseline

  • measure Serum alkaline phosphatase (ALK) in AIS patients

    Baseline

Interventions

Blood testDIAGNOSTIC_TEST

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.

Also known as: X-ray

Eligibility Criteria

Sexall
Age GroupsChild (0-17), Adult (18-64)
Sampling MethodNon-Probability Sample
Study Population

Patient who suffer from AIS and are eligible for corrective surgery.

You may qualify if:

  • AIS patients of either gender
  • Aged between 10-25 years old
  • Had Cobb angles of 40o or more (i.e. requiring corrective surgery)
  • Had their serum vitamin D levels measured prior to their corrective surgery.

You may not qualify if:

  • Patients with non-idiopathic scoliosis (such as congenital or neuromuscular condition)
  • Younger than 10 years
  • Older than 25 years of age
  • Who did not have their serum vitamin D levels present on the system.
