- 16, 2016.
Prof. Bravo participated in the ACRs 2016 Annual Meeting held in
Washington D.C. Once again the Joint Hypermobility Study Group
came together, and Dr. Bravo, alongside Dr. Gall, were co-convenors.
In this opportunity, he presented his study about an "Easy way to Suspect
Ehlers-Danlos type III, with Slides". Also, Dr. Neuseli Limari told us
about her more than 20 years experience with hypermobility patients in
Brazil.
Representing her father, our friend Antonio Bulbena, Andrea Bulbena,
Psychiatrist, talked about Anxiety in Ehlers-Danlos.
This
time, Prof. Bravo also presented a poster with 2300 Ehlers-Danlos patients,
and spoke about the high frequency of Osteoporosis and Dysautonomia amongst
these patients, always putting special emphasis on the high incidence of
Ehlers-Danlos with little or no hipermobility (51%) which makes its
diagnosis even more difficult.
