Ehlers-Danlos syndromes (EDS) are a heterogeneous group of hereditary connective tissue disorders (HTCD) caused by mutations in genes involved in the structure and/or biosynthesis of collagens and other extracellular matrix proteins. 1 The 2017 classification consists of 13 types of EDS based on clinical manifestations and genetic abnormalities in 19 different genes. 2 Main common characteristics are generalized joint hypermobility (GJH), skin hyperextensibility, and tissue fragility. Scoliosis is another common manifestation in EDS patients. 1,3,4 Especially,
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
