The relationship between joint hypermobility and subacromial impingement syndrome and adhesive capsulitis of the shoulder

摘要

Patients aged between 18 and 70 years who presented at the physical medicine and rehabilitation outpatient clinic and who were diagnosed with SAIS or AC in a clinical and physical examination were included in the study. Patients in the same age group without musculoskeletal system pain were included in a control group. All of the cases were assessed for hypermobility using the Beighton score for generalized joint hypermobility (GJH), and the revised 1998 Brighton criteria for benign joint hypermobility syndrome (BJHS).
