Abstract
The present study was designed to investigate the involvement of central nervous system (CNS) in the pathogenesis of idiopathic scoliosis. Seventeen female patients with right thoracic idiopathic scoliosis (mean age = 13.36y) and ten normal controls (mean age =12.6y) entered the study. Magnetic stimulation of the brain was performed. Threshold measurements included upper (UT) and lower threshold (LT). Cortical latencies of MEPs during muscle activation were also measured.Entities:
