What's New In Science - ACL Reconstruction in EDS

What's New in Science (WNIS): A New study finds primary ACL reconstruction survival in EDS matches general population

Keeping up with new research is tough, even for scientists. That’s why I created What’s New in Science (WNIS), a series where I break down some of the most interesting new studies and share my perspective on why they matter.

Here, you'll find research summaries on everything from genetic discoveries to emerging treatments for chronic illnesses like EDS, POTS, MCAS, chronic pain, ME/CFS, and Long COVID. I also cover new scientific tools, clinical breakthroughs, and new medications that may be of interest.

Each post includes a quick, readable summary with links to the full article so you can dive deeper if you’d like to.
