Hypermobility syndrome

This study looked at how well a specific knee replacement (balanSys UNI) works over time. 116 people with knee arthritis got the implant and were followed for at least 2 years. Doctors measured knee function using the Knee Society Score and checked X-rays for any problems.

This pilot study looked at whether passive static stretching can increase hip flexibility in three groups: people who had hip replacement, those with long-term hip pain, and healthy volunteers. Twelve participants followed a 4-week stretching program three times a week under supe…

This study compared robotic-assisted total knee replacement to the conventional technique in 95 patients with knee arthritis. The goal was to see if robotic surgery leads to better knee function, less pain, and higher satisfaction two years after the operation. Researchers also c…

This observational study asks whether women with lipedema, a condition that causes abnormal fat buildup in the legs, are more likely to have joint hypermobility, or unusually loose joints, compared to healthy women of similar age and weight. Researchers will measure joint loosene…

This completed study examined 22 adolescents with idiopathic scoliosis to see if joint hypermobility (flexibility) and foot posture are linked to the severity of their spinal curve. Researchers measured hypermobility with the Beighton Score, foot posture with the Foot Posture Ind…

This study examined 180 young adults to see if the ratio of their index to ring finger length (2D:4D) is linked to joint hypermobility (being double-jointed). The idea is that this finger ratio may reflect hormone levels before birth. Researchers measured joint flexibility using …

This study used ultrasound to compare how the median nerve changes shape in different wrist positions (neutral, bent, extended, and tilted) between people with generalized joint hypermobility and healthy individuals. 36 women participated. The goal was to understand if hypermobil…
