ABSTRACT Scoliosis is characterized by three-dimensional changes of the spine and is estimated to be present in 4% of the population worldwide. The most common form is the adolescent idiopathic. The purpose of this study is to identify the major muscle abnormalities found in patients with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis through a literature review. We conducted an electronic search of the national databases PubMed, Lilacs, PEDro, and EMBASE using the keywords "scoliosis", "biomechanics", "exercise", "physical therapy specialty", "idiopathic", and "muscles", from January 2003 to April 2015. The most relevant articles in English, Portuguese and Spanish were selected by title and abstract. It was also performed a manual search of the references of the selected articles. From a total of 4,319 articles, 11 were selected. We conclude that individuals with AIS have changes in the paraspinal muscles, with a difference in activation between the concave and convex sides, suggesting an increase in EMG activity on the convex side, although there is still no consensus among the authors.

Background: Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) is a very common condition amongst adolescents in Bulgaria, as well as in Europe. Few factors play a role in the etiopathogenesis, one of which is the lifestyle, specifically the levels of some nutrients, and anthropometrics. They can be described as aspects of the nutritional status of patients with AIS. Purpose: This ongoing study aims to access the vit. D3 and dietary habits of children with AIS in Varna. Methods: Data was collected from 77 participants so far, using anthropometric measurements, food questionnaires and biochemical testing for vit. D3 levels in blood serum of all children without contraindications or objections (34 out of the 77). Results: Out of 34, 3% are sufficient, while 47% are insufficient and 50% are with moderate to severe levels of deficiency. The level of consumption of fish amongst all the participants so far is below the recommendations. The level of consumption of eggs, despite the low amount of vit. D3 in the egg yolk also has a correlation to the levels of vit. D3. Participants supplementing with vit D3 or multivitamins containing it had similar average levels to the children not supplementing. Conclusions: The data so far shows that participants might be in need of more information about fish consumption recommendations and how to properly supplement with vit D3 .
