NEW review by our group @UBC_MABLab led by @MichaelaCMKhan in @SportsMedicineJ

Are super shoes a super PLACEBO? Our randomised crossover trial in female recreational runners suggests NOT for running economy, but YES for perceptions!

Are you a clinician who treats people with patellofemoral pain (kneecap pain)?
We would love your help to identify core domains for people with PFP.

What does it mean when patients with PFP tell us they are "better" or "worse"? Top work led by @sv_gabrielaa in @JOSPT during her time in DK. Big sample, N=490 patients. Spoiler alert: "a bit better" should make us less confidant about positive changes. jospt.org/doi/10.2519/jospt.…

New paper alert ! 💥
Patients' expectations play a key role in MSK outcomes! ‼️
Yet, do we truly know what patients' expectations and preferences are for the management of MSK conditions? 🤔
And do those match with guidelines recommendations?🧐
