DOI: 10.1002/jcp.30883
Abstract: Scoliosis, usually diagnosed in childhood and early adolescence, is an abnormal lateral curvature of the spine. L‐type amino acid transporter 1 (LAT1), encoded by solute carrier transporter 7a5 (Slc7a5), plays a crucial role in amino… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/jor.23304
Abstract: Scoliosis deformity has been linked with deleterious changes in the thoracic cavity that affect pulmonary function. The causal relationship between spinal deformity and pulmonary function has yet to be fully defined. It has been hypothesized… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/jum.15068
Abstract: Currently, radiography with measurement of the Cobb angle is still considered the reference standard for diagnosing scoliosis. However, the ionizing radiation hazard is drawing wide attention. Can 3‐dimensional (3D) ultrasound (US) be an alternative modality… read more here.
