Lab Studies:
Tibia-fibula X-rays - no acute fractures or dislocations were appreciated.

Other Studies:
Compression pressures were checked with a Stryker compartment device:

1) Sibling A - Pre-test compression pressures were not checked, however, post-test compartment pressures in the right anterior - 44 mmHg, right lateral - 34 mmHg, left anterior - 55 mmHg, left lateral - 11 mmHg.

2) Sibling B - Pre-test pressures in right anterior - 20 mmHg and left anterior - 19 mmHg. Post-test pressures in the right anterior - 39 mmHg and left anterior - 36 mmHg.

3) Daughter A of sibling B - pre-test compression pressures in the left anterior - 46 mmHg and left lateral - 33 mmHg. Post-test pressures in the left anterior - 87 mmHg and left lateral - 35 mmHg.

4) Daughter B of sibling B - Pre-test compression pressure in the right anterior - 31 mmHg. Post-test pressure in the right anterior - 89 mmHg.

Sibling C - was never tested.

5) Son of sibling C - Pre-test compression pressures in the left anterior - 26 mmHg and left posterior - 21 mmHg. Post-test pressures in left anterior - 72 mmHg and left posterior - 44 mmHg

6) Daughter of sibling C - Pre-test compression pressures in left anterior - 37 mmHg and left posterior 42 mmHg. Post-test pressures after 7 mins running on the treadmill were left anterior - 93 mmHg and left posterior - 55 mmHg.
