Generalized hypermobility syndrome (GHS) alters dynamic plantar pressure characteristics.

This could be useful in clinical evaluation of the foot in GHS, preventing potential injuries of lower extremity, and also in processes related to decision making for foot orthotics and/or rehabilitation protocols.
