During a 5-year period, all the children born in Malmö, Sweden, were examined for congenital dislocation of the hip (CDH) and for inguinal hernia. Girls with CDH had a hernia five times more frequently than other girls, and boys with CDH three times more frequently. The children with CDH sustained their hernia abnormally early in life. We suggest that relaxin, which stimulates collagenase, could alter the connective tissue and be of importance for the development of both CDH and the hernia.
在5年期间，对瑞典马尔默出生的所有儿童进行了先天性髋关节脱位（CDH）和腹股沟疝检查。患有CDH的女孩患疝气的频率是其他女孩的5倍，患有CDH的男孩则是3倍。患有CDH的儿童在生命早期就异常容易患疝气。我们认为，刺激胶原酶的松弛素可能会改变结缔组织，对CDH和疝气的发展都很重要。
