What is The Influence of Asymptomatic Hypermobility on Unanticipated Cutting Biomechanics about?

## G eneralized joint hypermobility (GJH) is characterized by increased movement in multiple joints beyond normal ranges expected in a given population. 6 The scientific literature has identified GJH as a risk factor for noncontact knee injuries, including to the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL). 30,44 GJH is usually a congenital, inherited disorder and therefore cannot be prevented. 6 Neuromuscular and biomechanical factors also play a central role in noncontact lower extremity injuries; however, high injury-risk movement patterns are modifiable using training interventions. 27 Studies have shown that GJH may affect posture and movement; for example, hypermobile individuals demonstrate postural deviances of hip and trunk, 4 and altered movement patterns during stair climbing 28 and gait 11,12,34,40 compared with nonhypermobile individuals. None of the previous studies explored 3-dimensional (3D) kinematics of hypermobile individuals during sport-specific movements associated with high risk of noncontact knee and ACL injury.
