correct spinal deformities in Adolescent
Idiopathic Scoliosis (AIS). If the main cobb angle
was measured preoperatively, immediately after
surgery (first erect), and during two years of
follow-up, was the surgical procedure effective in
correcting the curve deformity and maintaining
correction after two years of follow-up?
Hint: correction loss > 10 degrees in indicative of a clinically
significant loss of correction.
Sample variables on

immediate operative
and 2 year follow-up
Normality assumption
of the variables on the
