Musculoskeletal pain and exercise—challenging existing paradigms and introducing new (2018)
Journal Article
Smith, B. E., Hendrick, P., Bateman, M., Holden, S., Littlewood, C., Smith, T. O., & Logan, P. (2018). Musculoskeletal pain and exercise—challenging existing paradigms and introducing new. British Journal of Sports Medicine, 53(14), 907-912. https://doi.org/10.1136/bjsports-2017-098983

Traditional pain models that describe tissue pathology as a source of nocioceptive input directly linked with pain expression, have been insufficient for assessing and treating musculoskeletal pain. The need for pain to be avoided or alleviated as m... Read More about Musculoskeletal pain and exercise—challenging existing paradigms and introducing new.

A development study and randomised feasibility trial of a tailored intervention to improve activity and reduce falls in older adults with mild cognitive impairment and mild dementia. Pilot and Feasibility Studies, 4, Article 49. https://doi.org/10.1186/s40814-018-0239-y

Background:
People with dementia progressively lose abilities and are prone to falling. Exercise- and activity-based interventions hold the prospect of increasing abilities, reducing falls, and slowing decline in cognition. Current falls prevention...

Background: Patellofemoral pain (PFP) is one of the most common forms of knee pain in adults under the age of 40, with a prevalence of 23% in the general population. The long-term prognosis is poor, with only one third of people pain-free 1 year afte...

Background

Older adults with mild dementia are at an increased risk of falls. Preventing those at risk from falling requires complex interventions involving patient-tailored strength- and balance-challenging exercises, home hazard assessment, visu...
