Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) is the most common nondegenerative spinal abnormality. Research indicates a strong correlation between genetics and AIS, with heritability estimates of 87.5%. However, the rarity of shared causative genes among patients, and the difficulty of replication between studies suggest that AIS is a highly complex polygenic disease. In this study, we utilized whole-g...
