Transverse plane pelvic rotation, skeletal asymmetrics, and the "developmental theory: timing of maturation from the top-down to bottom-up organization of postural control.

This theory demostrates coorelation between thoracic cuvatures and pelvic rotation in the same transverse plane. They speculate that the feet, pelvis, and "bottom-up" organization of postural control emerges prior to postural control and the "top-down" postural control re-organizes around age 7. It is possible that a discoordination of timing between the top-down (visual and vestibular) from the "bottom-up" (feet) organization of postural control could serve as the initiation and progression of AIS.
