You don't die because of the scoliosis but because the complication of the disease. It put pressure to your vitals organs like lungs and heart, causing failure of this organs. This happend when the grade of the scoliosis is more than 40 degrees. There is a beautiful treatment without surgery for this cases. Clear Scoliosis Center can help with this. There is hope for this patients. |

(1) The numbers listed are not as I would have expected, then again I was interested in the prevalence rate of deaths that did not involve surgical correction.
(2) Yes, scoliosis can lead to an increased mortality rate.
Moderate Scoliosis (between 25 and 70 degrees). It is still not clear whether untreated moderate scoliosis causes significant health problems later on.
Severe Scoliosis (over 70 degrees). If the curvature exceeds 70 degrees, the severe twisting of the spine that occurs in structural scoliosis can cause the ribs to press against the lungs, restrict breathing, and reduce oxygen levels. The distortions may also cause dangerous changes in the heart.
Very Severe Scoliosis (Over 100 degrees). Eventually, if the curve reaches over 100 degrees, both the lungs and heart can be injured. Patients with this degree of severity are susceptible to lung infections and pneumonia. Curves greater than 100 degrees increase mortality rates, but this problem is very uncommon in America.

Bevan on Crime > Software piracy rate 481 days 16 hours 51 minutes 59 seconds ago

Man, alot of you guys don't seem to understand this information. It's the proportion of software being used which is pirated. Nothing to do with any movies, music, ebooks, etc.
20% of software in the USA being pirate copies, is a projected loss of $8,040,000,000. 93% of software in Armenia being pirate copies is a projected loss of only $8,000,000. The countries at the top have far less people who actually use software, and like a few have mentioned, not such strict copyright laws. |

Obesity is an excess proportion of total body fat. A person is considered obese when his or her weight is 20% or more above normal weight. The most common measure of obesity is the body mass index or BMI. A person is considered overweight if his or her BMI is between 25 and 29.9; a person is considered obese if his or her BMI is over 30.
"Morbid obesity" means that a person is either 50%-100% over normal weight, more than 100 pounds over normal weight, has a BMI of 40 or higher, or is sufficiently overweight to severely interfere with health or normal function.

About China.
A study from 2007 (Cardiovascular diseases in China - Liu, Lisheng, 2007) pegged stroke at 40%. With an overall death rate of 703 per 100,000 (wikipedia: Demographics of the People's Republic of China), that amounts to about 280 per 100,000. I do not have chinese data about other heart diseases at hand.
So: China = 280 + some extra |
