Comparison of individual CP patients with the idiopathic scoliosis group.

Pair-wise Mann-Whitney tests were run to determine how individual CP patients compared to the idiopathic scoliosis groups. R = AChR; O = outside of; E = AChE; L = laminin β2; V = SV2. +++ indicates that the child had significantly higher values than the control group, while −−− indicates that the child had significantly lower values than the control group (p≤0.002; note that this level of significance was selected because there were 25 CP children compared to the control/IS group).
