  1. 1. The relationship between generalised joint hypermobility and neurodevelopment disorders

    Författare :Martin Glans; Susanne Bejerot; Marie Elwin; Carolina Baeza-Velasco; Örebro universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Attention Deficit Disorder with Hyperactivity ADHD ; Autism Spectrum Disorder ASD ; Adults; Biomarkers; Comorbidity; Joint Hypermobility; Joint Instability; Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome; Connective tissue;

    Sammanfattning : Knowledge about comorbidities is important since they often can affect the diagnoses, treatment and outcome of a patient. Moreover, it may provide an insight to biological underpinnings contributing to the association. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Pregnancy-related low back and pelvic girdle pain : with reference to joint hypermobility and treatment

    Författare :Anne Lindgren; Per Kristiansson; Thomas Torstensson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Finger joint laxity; Back pain; Pelvic girdle pain; Pregnancy; Postpartum; Injection; Medicinsk vetenskap; Medical Science;

    Sammanfattning : Objectives: To explore if joint mobility, as a measure of connective tissue quality, could be a predictor for pregnancy-related low back pain after pregnancy and to evaluate local corticosteroid injection treatment in women with persistent pelvic girdle pain long after childbirth.Material and methods: To investigate joint mobility in relation to pain, 200 women were examined repeatedly from early pregnancy until three months after delivery.

  3. 3. Generalized Joint Hypermobility and Specific Knee Laxity: Aspects of influence on the Anterior Cruciate Ligament Injured Knee

    Författare :David Sundemo; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Anterior cruciate ligament; Knee injury; Knee laxity; Generalized joint hypermobility;

    Sammanfattning : Injury to the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is one of the most serious sports-related injuries, with significant short- and long-term morbidity. Generalized joint hypermobility (GJH) and specific knee laxity are factors that have been associated with an increased risk of ACL injury and inferior postoperative outcome, but the state of the evidence is unclear and the available information is limited.

  4. 4. Musculoskeletal injuries and generalized joint laxity in ballet dancers

    Författare :Charlotte Leanderson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Aims: To examine the incidence and type of musculoskeletal injuries in classical ballet dancers, to analyse these injuries in relation to absence from performance, and to identify dancers at risk of frequent injuries in a Swedish professional ballet company (study I). To analyse spinal sagittal mobility and joint laxity in young Swedish ballet dancers in comparison with controls (study II). LÄS MER

  5. 5. The impact of age and gender with respect to general joint laxity, shoulder joint laxity and rotation : a study of 9, 12 and 15 year old students

    Författare :Anna Jansson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Competitive swimmers; drawer test; hypermobility; sulcus sign;

    Sammanfattning : The overall aim of this thesis was to study the natural development of general joint laxity, shoulder joint laxity and shoulder joint rotation in young students, and compare these to age-matched competitive swimmers to detect possible discrepancies between these groups. A further aim was to evaluate the clinical examination techniques used whether they correlate to each other in search of better understanding and interpretation of achieved measurement results.
