Respondents with GJHk and KJH were two times more likely to report knee joint-related symptoms such as pain, reduced performance of usual activity and lower HRQoL. The impact of these conditions on HRQoL is comparable with knee osteoarthritis.

2024年10月16日 · Introduction: Patients with generalised joint hypermobility, including knee hypermobility (GJHk), often experience knee pain and are typically managed with low-intensity strength training and/or proprioceptive training as part of standard care. However, not all patients experience satisfactory outcomes.

2022年12月30日 · This case series aims to describe a supervised, progressive heavy resistance training program in adults with GJHk and knee pain, the tolerability of the intervention, and the outcomes of knee pain, knee-related quality of life, muscle strength, proprioception, and patellar tendon stiffness through a 12-week period.

Several biomechanical factors, such as knee joint hypermobility (KJH), are suggested to play a role in the etiology of knee joint symptoms and knee osteoarthritis. Nevertheless, the prevalence or consequences of KJH solely or included in the classification of generalized joint hypermobility (GJHk) is unknown for a general population.

The prevalence of self -reported GJHk and KJH was 13% and 23%, mostly representing women. More than half of the respondents with GJHk and KJH had knee joint symptoms. The odds for reporting knee joint symptoms, severity of knee joint symptoms and duration of knee joint symptoms were twice as high for respondents with GJHk and KJH.

Generalized Joint Hypermobility (GJH) is a condition where most of an individual’s synovial joints are found to have a range of motion (ROM) beyond their normal limits.

Individuals with symptomatic GJHk are often treated with low-intensity strength training and/or proprioceptive training to reduce knee pain and improve function, but not

2022年12月30日 · Adults with GJHk and knee pain were recruited to perform supervised, progressive heavy resistance training twice a week for 12 weeks. The main outcome was the tolerability of the intervention.

Joint hypermobility (JH) is a broad term that describes the ability of the joint to be actively or passively moved beyond its physiological limit. JH has been linked to abnormalities of the genes responsible for collagen production, resulting in decreased stiffness of …
