Table 8.

Group comparison of the Cobb angle in the thoracic region for all parameters at admission and at discharge. Group 1: 0–20° (n = 74), Group 2: 20–40° (n = 119), Group 3: >40° (n = 56). The superior p-value of the Kruskal-Wallis test and the results of the multiple pair comparison are shown.
