“…The aim of this study is to test the reliability of spine deformity measurement of Scolioscan and its validity compared to the gold standard Cobb angle measurements from radiography in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) patients. METHODS: Prospective study divided into two stages: 1) Investigation of intra- and inter- reliability between two operators for acquiring images using Scolioscan and among three raters for measuring spinal curves from those images; 2) Correlation between the Cobb angle obtained from radiography by a medical doctor and the spine curve angle obtained using Scolioscan (Scolioscan angle). …”

“…BACKGROUND: American Indian and Alaska Native (AI/AN) youth face multiple health challenges compared to other racial/ethnic groups, which could potentially be ameliorated by the dissemination of evidence-based adolescent health promotion programs. Previous studies have indicated that limited trained personnel, cultural barriers, and geographic isolation may hinder the reach and implementation of evidence-based health promotion programs among AI/AN youth. …”

“…We have recently shown that both the SZ PRS and the BD PRS also distinguished affected patients from their non-affected adult relatives in a familial sample.1 Furthermore, the association of the SZ PRS with BD subjects and, reciprocally, of the BD PRS with SZ subjects support the shared susceptibility for these diseases.1 Importantly, new studies suggest that PRS would also distinguish the offspring at genetic risk from controls2 and may be associated with psychotic-like experiences and negative symptoms in adolescents of the general population.3 Little is known though about the contribution of the PRS in the risk prediction in children at genetic risk. …”
