No significant links between somatognosia, stereognosia, and hypermobility: sensory processing unlikely to drive common complaints in hypermobile population

Table 2 Comparison of the variables between non-hypermobile and all hypermobile groups

Variables (cm)	Non-hypermobile (n = 20)	All hypermobile^a (n = 26)	Mean difference [95% CI]	p-value^*	Hedge’s g [95% CI]
