Sagittal Radiographic Parameters Demonstrate Weak Correlations With Pretreatment Patient-Reported Health-Related Quality of Life Measures in Symptomatic De Novo Degenerative Lumbar Scoliosis: A European Multicenter Analysis While DNDLS is a severe disabling condition, no noteworthy association between clinical and sagittal radiographic parameters was found through this study, demonstrating that sagittal radiographic parameters should not be considered the unique predictor of pretreatment suboptimal health status in this specific group of patients. Future studies addressing classification and treatment algorithms will have to take into account the existing subgroups of ASD.
