While previous studies have shown AIS girls had poor bone qualities and mechanical properties when compared with non-AIS girls, the correlation between bone qualities and handgrip strength in AIS remains undefined. This study aimed to investigate the correlation between handgrip strength and bone qualities including volumetric bone mineral density (vBMD), bone geometry, trabecu...
