A correlation study between in-brace correction, compliance to spinal orthosis and health-related quality of life of patients with Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis

Table 10 Cobb angle difference between Visit 1 (pre-brace) and Visit 3 on subjects who had different curve patterns adjusted for age and bracing hours (per log sheets)

Predictor	Regression coefficient	p value	95% C.I.
Curve pattern
Thoracic curves	6.45	0.001	(2.94, 9.97)
Thoracolumbar curves	0
Bracing hour	−0.68	0.57	(−3.10, 1.74)
Age	0.89	0.21	(−0.52, 2.30)

Independent variables Risser sign and menarchal status were not included in the final model as they were not significant (p > 0.025).
