Long-Term study aims to unlock mystery of joint hypermobility and chronic illness
NCT ID NCT07657507
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study will follow 100 health science students for at least 10 years to understand why some people with very flexible joints (hypermobility) develop chronic pain, fatigue, and other health issues while others do not. Researchers will measure balance, heart rate, and quality of life at the start and track changes over time. The goal is to identify factors that trigger the transition from harmless joint flexibility to a condition called Hypermobility Spectrum Disorder.
