The only significant difference between mean baseline and 12-mo performance was an improvement in 6MWT in children 3-6 y old (P = .008). This age group also had the largest mean % improvement in performance in all other timed functional testing. In children >7 y, the slope of change on timed functional tests decreased or plateaued, with further reductions in performance in children ≥10 y. Participants with CTG repeat lengths <500 did not perform differently than those with repeat lengths >1000. Conclusions The 6MWT, 10 Meter Run, and 4 Stair Climb were the most feasible measures. Our findings are consistent with the clinical profile and prior cross-sectional data, helping to establish reasonable expectations of functional trajectories in this population as well as identifying points in which therapeutic interventions may be best studied. Further study of outcomes in children >10 y old and <3 y is warranted, but this new information will assist planning of clinical trials in the CDM population.]]> Tue 28 Mar 2023 10:11:21 AEDT ]]> The effect of neuromuscular injury reduction programs which contain neck exercises on the incidence of soccer-related head and neck injuries https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:54162 Tue 06 Feb 2024 12:59:34 AEDT ]]> Joint hypermobility and its association with self-reported knee health: A cross-sectional study of healthy Australian adults https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:53389 −.30; P =.04). Prevalence of GJH was higher in non-Caucasians (17.4% vs 5.6%, P <.001) and females (4.4% vs 1.1%, P =.007). Prevalence of KSH between ethnic and gender groups was not significantly different (P =.50 and P =.69 respectively). Non-Caucasians scored higher (better) in all KOOS domains than Caucasians (all P <.05). Conclusion: Those who met the age- and gender-specific criteria for GJH/KSH did not report worse knee health than their non-hypermobile counterparts. Clinicians can assure individuals who exhibit GJH/KSH that these are not associated with lower knee health and function.]]> Thu 23 Nov 2023 13:29:49 AEDT ]]> Is there a relationship between sagittal cervical spine mobility and generalised joint hypermobility?
