the hypothesis that asymmetric spinal loading slows growth on the concave side, increasing the curve and the asymmetry in a self-reinforcing loop.

In orthopedics, vicious cycle of scoliosis progression refers to the hypothesis that asymmetric spinal loading slows growth on the concave side, increasing the curve and the asymmetry in a self-reinforcing loop. This meaning comes from Stokes (1996) in Spine.[1]
