该研究的目的是评估155名患有特发性脊柱侧凸（IS）的女孩（年龄9-18岁，平均13.8 ± 2.3）的全身性关节过度活动（GJH）的患病率。对照组包括201名健康女孩。用Beighton（B）检验评估GJH的存在。23.2%的IS女孩和13.4%的对照组被诊断为GJH（P = 0.02）。GJH的患病率显着（P = 0.01）较低的IS女孩16-18岁相比，年轻的个人。轻度（11-24度）、中度（25-40度）和重度（>40度）脊柱侧凸女孩之间（P = 0.78），单胸椎、单腰椎和双曲脊柱侧凸女孩之间（P = 0.59），以及胸椎脊柱侧凸长度为7个椎体的女孩之间（P = 0.25），GJH的发生率没有差异。B中的点数与CobB角（P = 0.93）之间以及B中的点数与胸椎侧凸内的椎骨数（P = 0.63）之间均无相关性。GJH在IS女孩中出现的频率高于健康对照组。其患病率随年龄增长而下降。未发现GJH患病率与脊柱弯曲大小、弯曲模式或脊柱侧凸长度之间的关系。
The aim of the study was to assess the prevalence of generalised joint hypermobility (GJH) in 155 girls with idiopathic scoliosis (IS) (age 9-18 years, mean 13.8 +/- 2.3). The control group included 201 healthy girls. The presence of GJH was assessed with Beighton (B) test. GJH was diagnosed in 23.2% of IS girls and in 13.4% of controls (P = 0.02). The prevalence of GJH was significantly (P = 0.01) lower in IS girls aged 16-18 years in comparison with younger individuals. There was no difference regarding GJH occurrence between girls with mild (11-24 degrees), moderate (25-40 degrees), and severe scoliosis (>40 degrees) (P = 0.78), between girls with single thoracic, single lumbar, and double curve scoliosis (P = 0.59), and between girls with thoracic scoliosis length 7 vertebrae (P = 0.25). No correlation between the number of points in B and the Cobb angle (P = 0.93), as well as between the number of points in B and the number of the vertebrae within thoracic scoliosis (P = 0.63), was noticed. GJH appeared more often in IS girls than in healthy controls. Its prevalence decreased with age. No relation between GJH prevalence and curve size, curve pattern, or scoliosis length was found.
