Time-series assessment of function

Qualitative visual evaluation of the kinematic and kinetic time-series plots showed some differences between joint hypermobility and non-joint hypermobility participants. The joint hypermobility group demonstrated greater hip flexion than the non-joint hypermobility group throughout the entire DVJ (Fig. Kinematic time-...

CHRONIC PAIN, SECONDARY
The results of this pilot study suggest that adolescents with JFM and joint hypermobility show similar clinical pain intensity levels to those with JFM without joint hypermobility; however, those with joint hypermobility had lower levels of overall physical impairment. We found small differences in biomechanics between...

Conclusion
joint hypermobility, hypermobility, chronic musculoskeletal pain
These results tentatively support the use of neuromuscular training and exercise programming in adolescents with chronic musculoskeletal pain, regardless of joint hypermobility status; though, additional work is needed to address concerns regarding our study findings being attributed to error alone. However, findings a...

Thyroid surgery is known to be responsible for mild to moderate postoperative pain during the first 24 hours after surgery. Ketamine has a high affinity for N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors; it can also bind to opioid mu and sigma receptors that provide central and peripheral analgesic effects. The purpose of this study ...
