Exploring the COMFORT model for complex communication for physiotherapists in neurorehabilitation: a critical review (2017)
Journal Article

Literature has evaluated the level of accomplishment of the Patient-centred care (PCC) model from physiotherapists working in Neurorehabilitation. Reviewing the literature has revealed a lack of kills, confidence and training by physiotherapists to c...

Relative efficacy of different types of exercise for treatment of knee and hip osteoarthritis: Protocol for network meta-analysis of randomised controlled trials (2016)
Journal Article

Background: “Exercise” is universally recommended as a core treatment for knee and hip osteoarthritis (OA). However, there are very few head-to-head comparative trials to determine the relative efficacy between different types of exercise. The aim of...

Synovial changes detected by ultrasound in people with knee osteoarthritis – a meta-analysis of observational studies (2016)
Journal Article

© 2016 The Authors Objectives To examine the prevalence of synovial effusion, synovial hypertrophy and positive Doppler signal (DS) detected by ultrasound (US) in people with knee osteoarthritis (OA) and/or knee pain compared to that in the general p...

Synovial pathology detected on ultrasound correlates with the severity of radiographic knee osteoarthritis more than with symptoms (2014)
Journal Article

OBJECTIVE: To [1] compare the frequency and severity of ultrasound (US) features in people with normal knees (controls), knee pain (KP), asymptomatic radiographic OA (ROA), and symptomatic OA (SROA), [2] examine relationships between US features, pai...

Relative impact of radiographic osteoarthritis and pain on quadriceps strength, proprioception, static postural sway and lower limb function (2005)
Journal Article

Objective: To investigate the relative impact of radiographic osteoarthritis (ROA) and current knee pain on lower limb physical function, quadriceps strength, knee joint proprioception, and postural sway. Methods: Using a 2×2 factorial design, 14...
