| Abstrakt: | Introduction: Although results show an association between the presence of generalised joint hypermobility (GJH) and functional gastrointestinal disorders (FGIDs) in children, they are limited and controversial. Objective: To determine the association between GJH and FGIDs and the search for risk factors for GJH in girls from a Public Educational Institution of Tuluá, Colombia. Patients and Methods: The students completed the Rome IV Questionnaire to identify FGIDs. Each girl with a diagnosis of some FGIDs was matched with a healthy control of the same age. Joint laxity was assessed according to the Beighton score and was considered as GJH when it was ≥ 4. The prevalence of GJH was compared in girls with and without FGIDs. Results: Out of a total of 921 girls between 10 and 18 years of age that participated in the study, 219 (23.8%) of them had some FGIDs. The analysis was performed on a total of 169 girls with FGIDs and 169 healthy control girls. There were no significant differences in GJH between girls with and without a diagnosis of some FGIDs (OR=1.12: 95% CI; 0.71-1.77, P=.5838), nor were there any risk factors. Conclusion: In this study, no relationship or any risk factor was found between GJH and the presence of FGIDs. (Copyright © 2019 Asociación Española de Pediatría.
