| Abstract | This is the protocol for a review and there is no abstract. The objectives are as follows:
The objectives of this systematic review are to determine the effectiveness and safety of spinal surgery in DMD patients with scoliosis. We intend to test the following hypotheses:
(1) Whether spinal surgery is effective in increasing life expectancy;
(2) Whether spinal surgery can improve respiratory function in the short-term and long-term;
(3) Whether spinal surgery can improve quality of life and overall functioning;
(4) Whether spinal surgery is associated with severe adverse effects. |
