Microvascular status and skin thickness in adults with hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos syndrome: a pilot investigation

CONCLUSIONS: Our study detected in hEDS patients a normal microvascular function at rest and a suitable capillary morphology butwith increased microvascular fragility. The dermal thickness seems thinner in hEDS patients than in controls in most skin areas, with strong statistically significance at the level of feet and thorax.PMID:37976114 | DOI:10.55563/clinexprheumatol/nrs4mp
