Association between psychopathological factors and joint hypermobility syndrome in a group of undergraduates from a French university
Abstract
Objective: To explore the frequency of Joint Hypermobility Syndrome (JHS) among university students and assess whether a relationship exists between this collagen condition and certain psychological variables. Method: A cross-sectional sample of 365 undergraduates at a French university was assessed with the Brighton's criteria for JHS, Somatosensory Amplification Scale (SSAS), Liebowitz Social Anxiety Scale (LSAS), and Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS). Results: 39.5% of the participants met Brighton's criteria for JHS. Scores of somatosensory amplification were higher among participants with JHS ( t = −2.98; p = 0.03) independent of gender. Female participants with JHS had higher scores in depression ( t = −2.01; p = 0.04) and general anxiety ( t = −2.35; p = 0.01) than women without JHS. The percentage of males with a medium/high level of social anxiety was greater among participants with JHS (78.6% vs. 41.7%; χ 2 = 6.18; p = 0.01). Logistic regression demonstrated that male sex and low level of somatosensory amplification are variables contrary to the presence of JHS. Conclusion: JHS is a frequent condition among young people evaluated. JHS is associated with psychological distress and higher levels of somatosensory amplification.

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.
