Scoliosis and Spinal Disorders of cutting-edge spine research to further enhance effective collaboration among clinical spine specialists and scientists, and to ultimately improve patient outcomes based on an evidence-based spine care approach. The journal has had a remarkable history in providing thought-provoking and cutting-edge research and perspectives. Published by BioMed Central, "Scoliosis and Spinal Disorders" is the official journal of the Society on Scoliosis Orthopaedic and Rehabilitation Treatment (SOSORT) and is also affiliated with the International Research Society of Spinal Deformities (IRSSD), Hellenic Spine Society (HSS), Italian Scoliosis and Spine Study Group (GSS), Italian Physiotherapist Association (AIFI), Study in Multidisciplinary Pain Research (SIMPAR), Chinese
Management of scoliosis 45 degrees. SOSORT uses the 45-degree to 50-degree threshold as a result of the well-documented, plus or minus five degrees measurement error that can occur while measuring Cobb angles. Scoliosis braces are usually comfortable for the patient, especially when it is well designed and fit; also after the 7- to 10-day break-in period. A well fit and functioning scoliosis brace provides comfort when it is supporting the deformity and redirecting the body into a more corrected and normal physiological position. The Scoliosis Research Society's recommendations for bracing include curves progressing to larger than 25°, curves presenting between 30 and 45°,
