AIS causes a loss of trunk height. This paper documents this loss against sitting height standards and assesses formulae for adjusting height loss back to the standard.

This was compared to standards of sitting height with age and the ratio of height to sitting height with age (HSH). The corrected height was calculated using published formulae and replotted against these standards.Aim:
