Effects of ultra-high pressure combined with egg white protein on the sodium release and flavour of reduced‑sodium surimi products.
Salt reduction in shrimp surimi is constrained by weakened gel networks, inefficient sodium release, and loss of characteristic flavour. This study evaluated whether ultra-high-pressure treatment (UHP, 290 MPa, 15 min) combined with egg white protein (EWP) could improve saltiness perceptio…
Hypermobility spectrum disorders and hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos syndrome: patient experiences, disability and implications for rehabilitation.
The diagnosis and management of hypermobility spectrum disorders and hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (HSD/hEDS) are a healthcare challenge because of the wide array of symptoms, lack of diagnostic biomarkers, and evolving management guidelines. This study aimed to describe patient experiences, di…
Meta-Analysis: Chronic Gastrointestinal Symptoms and Comorbidities in Hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome and Hypermobility Spectrum Disorders.
Patients with Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (EDS)/hypermobility spectrum disorders (HSD) report higher rates of chronic gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms, disorders of gut-brain interaction (DGBI), and extraintestinal comorbidities. We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to assess the prevalence o…
Managing Patients With Hypermobility Disorders: They've Seen You, but Have You Seen Them?
SYNOPSIS:Patients with hypermobility spectrum disorders (HSD) and hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (hEDS) frequently present to outpatient musculoskeletal practice. Yet many physical therapists feel uncertain about how best to manage these complex conditions. Individuals often report years of recu…
Exploring the dissociation-binge eating relationship in eating disorders: a scoping review.
Binge eating (BE) is a core symptom across multiple eating disorders (ED), yet differences in dissociative experiences between ED subtypes-and the psychological processes linking them-remain insufficiently understood. This scoping review synthesized evidence on the association between dissociation a…
Enrichment of an Ehlers-Danlos-like phenotype in women with the FMR1 premutation: a pilot study.
Previous research identified an Ehlers-Danlos (EDS)-like phenotype in fragile X premutation (FXPC) women. This preliminary research examines associations between the presence of this connective tissue phenotype, FMR1 genotype and immune-mediated, autonomic-mediated and endocrine-mediated symptoms. W…
Excessive Hypocapnic Cerebral Vasoconstriction in Hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome Assessed With Real-Time Magnetic Resonance Imaging During Lower-Body Negative Pressure.
Orthostatic intolerance is common in hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (hEDS) with one third of patients fulfilling postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome criteria. Our aim was to assess cerebral blood flow in patients with hEDS and postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome during orthostasis, w…
Computable Phenotype for Identifying Undiagnosed Hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome: Protocol for a Development and Validation Study.
Hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (hEDS) is a multisystemic hereditary connective tissue disorder characterized by generalized joint hypermobility, chronic pain, and a complex spectrum of comorbidities. Diagnosis relies on complex clinical criteria, leading to poor recognition by clinicians and fra…
