The Ehlers‐Danlos Syndrome

Steinmann, Beat, Royce, Peter M., Superti‐Furga, Andrea·2002·Connective Tissue and Its Heritable Disorders

Abstract

The Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (EDS) is a heterogeneous group of heritable disorders of connective tissue characterized by articular hypermobility, skin hyperextensibility, and tissue fragility affecting skin, ligaments, joints, blood vessels, and internal organs. In this chapter, we try to cover the EDS in a comprehensive and authoritative way, to consider the different aspects as objectively as possible, and to clarify earlier concepts and conclusions that today are no longer tenable. To give the reader an idea of how knowledge was gained, references are often cited in a historical sequence.

Recomputing p-values needs the paper’s full text.

Claims the paper makes

This paper’s full text isn’t openly available, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • The hallmarks of arthrochalasia EDS are severe generalized joint hypermobility, congenital bilateral hip dislocation, and recurrent subluxations and dislocations of both small and large joints.

    “The hallmarks of the disorder are severe generalized joint hypermobility, congenital bilateral hip dislocation, and recurrent subluxations and dislocations of both small and large joint [Steinmann et al., 2002] (Representative picture of the phenotype are given in Fig. 1).”

  • A range of clinical severity is observed in individuals with kEDS-PLOD1 for each of the systems discussed.

    “A range of clinical severity is observed in individuals with kEDS-PLOD1 for each of the systems discussed as detailed in the above section [Steinmann et al., 2002;Rohrbach et al., 2011].”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
