Impairment-targeted exercises for older adults with knee pain: protocol for a proof-of-principle study. BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 17, Article 47. https://doi.org/10.1186/s12891-016-0899-9

BACKGROUND: Exercise therapy for knee pain and osteoarthritis remains a key element of conservative treatment, recommended in clinical guidelines. Yet systematic reviews point to only modest benefits from exercise interventions.One reason for this mi...

Arthritis Research and Therapy, 17, Article 178. https://doi.org/10.1186/s13075-015-0693-3

Introduction
The foot is largely overlooked in calls for better characterisation of clinical phenotypes in osteoarthritis (OA). Yet the midfoot complex in particular has the potential to provide important insights into OA pathogenesis given its cent...

The science of clinical practice: disease diagnosis or patient prognosis? Evidence about "what is likely to happen" should shape clinical practice (2015)
Journal Article
Croft, P., Altman, D. G., Deeks, J. J., Dunn, K. M., Hay, A. D., Hemingway, H., …Timmis, A. (2015). The science of clinical practice: disease diagnosis or patient prognosis? Evidence about "what is likely to happen" should shape clinical practice. BMC Medicine, 20. https://doi.org/10.1186/s12916-014-0265-4

BACKGROUND: Diagnosis is the traditional basis for decision-making in clinical practice. Evidence is often lacking about future benefits and harms of these decisions for patients diagnosed with and without disease. We propose that a model of clinical...

Prognosis research is concerned with predicting outcomes to make health care more effective. It has a crucial role to play in clinical and policy decision-making. The quality of much prognosis research is poor, evidenced by incomplete reporting, poor...

Prognosis has been described as an important but neglected branch of clinical science. While patients' views have been sought in the context of life-threatening illness, similar research is lacking for patients presenting with common, non-life-threat...
