Radiographic measurements of SS, PT, and PI and HHS for functional outcomes were taken at 6 weeks, 3 months, and 6 months postoperatively. Repeated-measures analysis of variance, correlations, and regression analysis were done.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Results:<\/jats:title>\n \n HHS improved significantly from 90.5 \u00b1 3.7 (6 weeks) to 94.3 \u00b1 3.5 (6 months;\n P<\/jats:italic>\n < 0.001, \u03b7\n 2<\/jats:sup>\n = 0.76). Static SS increased modestly (42.6\u00b0 to 43.7\u00b0,\n P<\/jats:italic>\n < 0.01), PT decreased (12.0\u00b0 to 11.0\u00b0,\n P<\/jats:italic>\n = 0.08), and PI remained stable (54.6\u00b0,\n P<\/jats:italic>\n = 0.99). Baseline SS, PT, and PI showed no significant correlation with HHS at any time points (all |r| <0.30,\n P<\/jats:italic>\n > 0.05). Multivariable regression analysis confirmed that these static parameters did not independently predict functional outcomes (all\n P<\/jats:italic>\n > 0.1). PI = SS + PT residuals (0.2\u00b0 \u00b1 0.9\u00b0) confirmed reliability.\n <\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n Early THA functional gains occur independently of baseline spinopelvic alignment in young patients. Minimal changes in static parameters suggest that young spines adapt well after THA, which can reassure clinicians about the prognosis in this demographic.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.4103\/aam.aam_445_26","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,7,28]],"date-time":"2026-07-28T17:00:11Z","timestamp":1785258011000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1097\/lww.0000000000001000","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Spinopelvic Parameters and Functional Outcomes after Total Hip Arthroplasty: A Prospective Evaluation in a Young Cohort"],"prefix":"10.4103","author":[{"given":"Govind Kumar","family":"Gupta","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopaedics, Rajendra Institute of Medical Sciences, Ranchi, Jharkhand, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Shahid","family":"Azam","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopaedics, Rajendra Institute of Medical Sciences, Ranchi, Jharkhand, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Sudha","family":"Rani","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Anatomy, Sheikh Bhikhari Medical College, Hazaribagh, Jharkhand, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ayesha","family":"Kalim","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Dental Surgery, Rajendra Institute of Medical Sciences, Ranchi, Jharkhand, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ansu","family":"Soni","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopaedics, Rajendra Institute of Medical Sciences, Ranchi, Jharkhand, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Zikra","family":"Ain","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopaedics, Rajendra Institute of Medical Sciences, Ranchi, Jharkhand, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Vikrant","family":"Pandey","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopaedics, Rajendra Institute of Medical Sciences, Ranchi, Jharkhand, India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"276","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,7,29]]},"container-title":["Annals of African Medicine"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/www.ovid.com\/10.4103\/aam.aam_445_26","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2026,7,28]],"date-time":"2026-07-28T17:00:11Z","timestamp":1785258011000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/www.ovid.com\/10.4103\/aam.aam_445_26"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2026,7,29]]},"references-count":0,"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.4103\/aam.aam_445_26","relation":{},"ISSN":["1596-3519","0975-5764"],"issn-type":[{"value":"1596-3519","type":"print"},{"value":"0975-5764","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2026,7,29]]},"assertion":[{"value":"2026-04-18","name":"received","label":"Received","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}},{"value":"2026-06-03","name":"accepted","label":"Accepted","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}}]}}
