Objective Although diagnostic criteria for generalized ligamentous laxity (hypermobility) in children are widely used, their validity may be limited, due to the lack of robust descriptive epidemiologic data on this condition. The present study was un... Read More about Epidemiology of generalized joint laxity (hypermobility) in fourteen-year-old children from the UK: A population-based evaluation.

Gait kinematics and passive knee joint range of motion in children with hypermobility syndrome (2011)
Journal Article
Rowe, P. J., van der Linden, M. L., Fatoye, F. A., Palmer, S., & Macmillan, F. (2011). Gait kinematics and passive knee joint range of motion in children with hypermobility syndrome. Gait and Posture, 33(3), 447-451. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.gaitpost.2010.12.022

Hypermobility syndrome (HMS) is characterised by generalised joint laxity and musculoskeletal complaints. Gait abnormalities have been reported in children with HMS but have not been empirically investigated. The extent of passive knee joint range of...
