Error bars showing the mean value and the 95% CI (give in degrees) of the correction rate of Cobb angle (A), LEVT (B), restoration of the sagittal profile (C), and vertebral rotation (D) against the four different study periods. Patients operated on in autumn 2005 and in 2006 referred to as period 1, 2007 as period 2, 2008 as period 3, and 2009 as period 4.
