Description
Summary:This study was conducted to investigate the relationship between kinesthesia and motor performance in young adults with generalized joint hypermobility (GJH). A systematic review was conducted in accordance with the PRISMA guidelines. PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, PsycINFO, CINAHL, Scopus, and Google Scholar were scoured to select relevant papers. Ten papers were selected for the review. The study found no significant impact of GJH on the kinesthetic domains. Several studies suggested varying impacts of GJH on motor performance, with some indicating potential benefits and others indicating possible detriments. Interestingly, the impact of GJH on motor performance was found to be influenced by other factors such as fitness, body mass index, and the use of specific assessment tools. The results suggest that GJH does not significantly impact motor performance in young adults. However, the relationship between GJH and motor performance appears to be complex and may be influenced by several other factors.
