Scoliosis screening for kids in Nanchang
Part of Bones, joints & muscles clinical trials.
This study aims to find out how common scoliosis (a sideways curve of the spine) is among children aged 9 to 14 in the Nanchang area, and what might cause it. If your child participates, they will have a simple screening test to check for scoliosis.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your child is between 9 and 14 years old and attends an elementary or middle school.
- Your family lives in Nanchang (not in a special school for children with physical or intellectual disabilities).
- Your child is generally healthy and can complete the screening tests without difficulty.
- You and your child are willing to take part and will sign a consent form.

This study looks at how the brain senses the body in space for teens with scoliosis (a curved spine). By understanding this, doctors hope to improve treatments. To join, you must be having spine surgery for scoliosis and be able to have a brain MRI.
This study tests a new 3D imaging method to assess scoliosis by comparing back height difference and trunk rotation angle. It aims to find a simpler way to measure spinal curves in teenagers with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis.
This study checks adolescents who have an AIS spinal curve and then offers an intervention. It may help by testing what screening and treatment approach works best for improving or managing the curve.
This study is looking for better ways to predict how adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) will progress and to guide treatment using genetic information. If you join, you'll get extra tests to help doctors understand your individual risk.
This study checks how well people can move and perform physical tasks if they have scoliosis (an uneven spine), or if they’re a healthy comparison group. It may help researchers better understand how body structure and function are affected by different types of scoliosis.
This study looks at how the brain and muscles work together in teens with spinal curves (scoliosis). It uses skin sensors and brain wave tests to understand muscle control, which may help improve treatments.
