The establishment, maintenance, and adaptation of high and low impact chronic pain: A framework for biopsychosocial pain research (2023)
Journal Article
Eccleston, C., Begley, E., Birkinshaw, H., Choy, E., Crombez, G., Fisher, E., …Keogh, E. (2023). The establishment, maintenance, and adaptation of high and low impact chronic pain: A framework for biopsychosocial pain research. PAIN, 164(10), 2143-2147. https://doi.org/10.1097/j.pain.0000000000002951

We present a framework for the study of states of chronic pain and transitions between those states. We capture in the framework the dynamic nature of pain: people live with pain that changes over time. First, we offer definitions of both acute and c...

Maternal intrapartum fluids and neonatal weight loss in the breastfed infant (2023)
Journal Article
Rich, M., Dowling, S., & Bray, I. (2023). Maternal intrapartum fluids and neonatal weight loss in the breastfed infant. British Journal of Midwifery, 31(6), 344-351. https://doi.org/10.12968/bjom.2023.31.6.344

Background/Aims Significant weight loss during early life can be of serious concern and assessing weight is key in decisions regarding supplementation. However, supplementation is a significant risk factor for early breastfeeding cessation. Recognisi... Read More about Maternal intrapartum fluids and neonatal weight loss in the breastfed infant.

Postactivation performance enhancement (PAPE) in healthy adults using a bodyweight conditioning activity: A systematic review and meta-analysis (2023)
Journal Article
Brink, N., Constantinou, D., & Torres, G. (2023). Postactivation performance enhancement (PAPE) in healthy adults using a bodyweight conditioning activity: A systematic review and meta-analysis. Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research, 37(4), 930-937. https://doi.org/10.1519/JSC.0000000000004370

A systematic review and meta-analysis were conducted to review the available evidence on whether a bodyweight conditioning activity can acutely improve the performance outcome of a subsequent task through postactivation performance enhancement. Data... Read More about Postactivation performance enhancement (PAPE) in healthy adults using a bodyweight conditioning activity: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

Cross-cultural adaptation and its impact on research in emergency care (2023)
Journal Article
Roberts, T., Carlton, E., Booker, M., Voss, S., Vaillancourt, S., Jafar, A. J. N., & Benger, J. (2023). Cross-cultural adaptation and its impact on research in emergency care. Emergency Medicine Journal, 40(6), 396-403. https://doi.org/10.1136/emermed-2022-212337

The perspective of patients is increasingly recognised as important to care improvement and innovation. Patient questionnaires such as patient-reported outcome measures may often require cross-cultural adaptation (CCA) to gather their intended inform...

The-state-of-the-art of soft robotics to assist mobility: A review of physiotherapist and patient identified limitations of current lower-limb exoskeletons and the potential soft-robotic solutions (2023)
Journal Article
Morris, L., Diteesawat, R. S., Rahman, N., Turton, A., Cramp, M., & Rossiter, J. (2023). The-state-of-the-art of soft robotics to assist mobility: A review of physiotherapist and patient identified limitations of current lower-limb exoskeletons and the potential soft-robotic solutions. Journal of NeuroEngineering and Rehabilitation, 20(1), 18. https://doi.org/10.1186/s12984-022-01122-3

Background: Soft, wearable, powered exoskeletons are novel devices that may assist rehabilitation, allowing users to walk further or carry out activities of daily living. However, soft robotic exoskeletons, and the more commonly used rigid exoskeleto...

Making the case for pharmacogenomics in the management of mental health conditions (2023)
Journal Article
Berrou, I., Ramsunder, A., & Palmer, R. (2023). Making the case for pharmacogenomics in the management of mental health conditions. Pharmaceutical Journal, 310, 7969. https://doi.org/10.1211/PJ.2023.1.171747

Mental health conditions are the largest single cause of disability in the UK and among the top ten causes of disability worldwide. The prevalence of mental health conditions is increasing rapidly, especially since the COVID-19 pandemic. Overall, the...
