UNASSIGNED:韧带松弛是导致关节过度活动超出其平均和正常运动范围的一种情况。它会导致肌肉骨骼和关节损伤。这项全国性的多中心研究调查了具有不同种族背景的伊朗成年人中广义韧带松弛的流行病学及其与肌肉骨骼疾病的关系。
UNASSIGNED:从伊朗的八个城市和六个不同种族中选择了1,488人(年龄范围:17-40岁),并将其纳入本横断面研究。根据Beighton评分标准搜索临床检查中是否存在韧带松弛。他们还检查了可能伴随韧带松弛的任何类型的肌肉骨骼疾病。卡方检验用于比较基于性别和种族的韧带松弛频率;此外,t检验用于比较基于年龄的韧带松弛的频率。
未经批准:总共,280名(18.8%)参与者有全身韧带松弛,在女性中更为普遍(22.7%),与男性相比(14.4%)。关于种族,患病率最高和最低的是吉拉克(37.9%)和波斯-阿拉伯(6%)种族,分别(P<0.001)。韧带松弛与运动损伤有显著的关系,联合投诉,关节脱位,韧带扭伤,坐骨神经痛和背痛,贝克囊肿,和静脉曲张(P<0.001)。大多数全身韧带松弛的参与者(93.6%)不了解他们的问题及其在选择适当的体育活动中的重要性。
UNASSIGNED:在伊朗17-40岁的人口中,全身韧带松弛的患病率似乎相对较高,尤其是女性。这似乎与种族密切相关。强烈建议考试,筛选,和信息应在学校或至少在作为国家计划的高流行地区早期提供。
UNASSIGNED: Ligamentous laxity is a condition that leads to joints\' hypermobility beyond their average and normal range of motion. It can cause musculoskeletal and joint injuries. This national multi-centered study investigated the epidemiology of generalized ligamentous laxity and its relationship with musculoskeletal disorders among Iranian adults with different ethnic backgrounds.
UNASSIGNED: A total of 1,488 people (age range: 17-40 years) were selected from eight cities and six different ethnicities of Iran and included in this cross-sectional study. The presence of ligamentous laxity with clinical examinations was searched according to Beighton score criteria. They were also examined for any kind of musculoskeletal disorders that might accompany ligamentous laxity. The Chi-square test was used to compare the frequency of ligamentous laxity based on gender and ethnicity; moreover, the t-test was utilized to compare the frequency of ligamentous laxity based on age.
UNASSIGNED: In total, 280 (18.8%) participants had generalized ligamentous laxity, and it was more prevalent in women (22.7%), compared to men (14.4%). Regarding ethnicity, the highest and lowest prevalence rates were in Gilak (37.9%) and Persian-Arab (6%) ethnicities, respectively (P<0.001). Ligamentous laxity showed a significant relationship with sports injury, joint complaint, joint dislocation, ligament sprain, sciatica and back pain, Baker\'s cyst, and varicose veins (P<0.001). Most participants with generalized ligamentous laxity (93.6%) had no knowledge of their problem and its importance in choosing an appropriate sports activity.
UNASSIGNED: The prevalence of generalized ligamentous laxity seems to be relatively high among the 17-40-year-old population of Iran, especially in women. It seems to be significantly related to ethnicity. It is strongly recommended that examinations, screening, and information be provided at an early age in schools or at least in areas with a high prevalence as national programs.
