BS ≥ 6 represents the majority of the sample and predominantly girls. Most characterized children with GJH present BS = 6 and BS = 8 with variables located only in ULs and LLs, a condition that does not imply the feature is generalized. In children, BS = 7 and BS = 9 characterize GJH by including the axial skeleton, ULs, and LLs. These results draw attention to the implications for defining the diagnosis of hEDS and HSDs
