This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to determine optimal exercise prescription parameters for Schroth training in AIS by examining dose-response relationships between exercise frequency, duration, and clinical outcomes.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Systematic searches of PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, and SPORTDiscus were conducted following PRISMA 2020 guidelines. Randomized controlled trials examining Schroth interventions in adolescents aged 10\u201318 years with idiopathic scoliosis were included. Network meta-analysis was performed using MetaInsight platform for Cobb angle outcomes, with traditional pairwise meta-analyses conducted for all outcomes using standardized mean differences with 95% confidence intervals.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      15 randomized controlled trials encompassing 620 participants were included.

Non-linear dose-response patterns show diminishing returns at higher frequencies, challenging conventional exercise prescription assumptions. These findings require validation through prospective studies with pre-specified dose-stratification examining long-term effectiveness, cost-effectiveness, and patient adherence across diverse healthcare contexts before broad clinical implementation.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.3389\/fsurg.2026.1796813","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,4,22]],"date-time":"2026-04-22T05:52:10Z","timestamp":1776837130000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3389\/crossmark-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Optimal exercise prescription parameters in Schroth training for adolescent idiopathic scoliosis: a systematic review and meta-analysis"],"prefix":"10.3389","volume":"13","author":[{"given":"Daoquan","family":"Guan","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Anhui Communications Vocational & Technical College","place":["Hefei, China"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yahui","family":"Liu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Kyungwoon University","place":["Gumi-si, Republic of Korea"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Tongwu","family":"Yu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Capital University of Physical Education and Sports","place":["Beijing, China"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Wen","family":"Cheng","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Shinhan University, Uijeongbu-si","place":["Gyeonggi-do, Republic of Korea"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1965","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,4,22]]},"reference":[{"key":"B1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"f2508","DOI":"10.1136\/bmj.f2508","article-title":"Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis","volume":"346","author":"Altaf","year":"2013","journal-title":"Br Med J"},{"key":"B2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"904","DOI":"10.4102\/sajp.v75i1.904","article-title":"The effectiveness of Schroth exercises in adolescents with idiopathic scoliosis: a systematic review and meta-analysis","volume":"75","author":"Burger","year":"2019","journal-title":"S Afr J Physiother"},{"key":"B3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"806","DOI":"10.3390\/children11070806","article-title":"Effects of Schroth 3D exercise on adolescent idiopathic scoliosis: a systematic review and meta-analysis","volume":"11","author":"Chen","year":"2024","journal-title":"Children (Basel)"},{"key":"B4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"119","DOI":"10.1016\/j.paed.2022.01.002","article-title":"Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis: a review of current concepts","volume":"32","author":"Mohamed","year":"2022","journal-title":"Paediatr Child Health (Oxford)"},{"key":"B5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"e19175","DOI":"10.7717\/peerj.19175","article-title":"Evaluating exercise therapies in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis: a systematic review with Bayesian network meta-analysis","volume":"13","author":"Jiang","year":"2025","journal-title":"PeerJ"},{"key":"B6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"35","DOI":"10.4103\/0019-5413.58604","article-title":"Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis: retrospective analysis of 235 surgically treated cases","volume":"44","author":"Unnikrishnan","year":"2010","journal-title":"IJOO"},{"key":"B7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"530","DOI":"10.1186\/s13018-025-05900-2","article-title":"Clinical and economic effectiveness of Schroth therapy in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis: insights from a machine learning- and active learning-based real-world study","volume":"20","author":"Ayvaz","year":"2025","journal-title":"J Orthop Surg Res"},{"key":"B8","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1186\/s13013-017-0145-8","article-title":"2016 SOSORT guidelines: orthopaedic and rehabilitation treatment of idiopathic scoliosis during growth","volume":"13","author":"Stefano","year":"2018","journal-title":"Scoliosis Spinal Disord"},{"key":"B9","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3389\/fspor.2024.1492241","article-title":"Treatment of idiopathic scoliosis with conservative methods based on exercises: a systematic review and meta-analysis","volume":"6","author":"Dimitrijevi\u0107","year":"2024","journal-title":"Front Sports Act Living"},{"key":"B10","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"156","DOI":"10.1186\/s13643-025-02893-1","article-title":"Comparative efficacy of conservative interventions for adolescent idiopathic scoliosis: a systematic review and network meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials","volume":"14","author":"Ren","year":"2025","journal-title":"Syst Rev"},{"key":"B11","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"296","DOI":"10.54097\/7450b543","article-title":"Schroth exercise vs. Schroth combined exercise for adolescent idiopathic scoliosis: a systematic review.
