Do you know the research that underpins Online Support Groups for MSK pain conditions? Learn about how OSG's are evaluated, who uses them and more in our upcoming systematic review. @paulwhodges @ProfDavidHunter @Bill_Vicenzino @KimBennell @jmirpub

@JenSetchell @KarimeMescouto @RebeccaEOlson @paulwhodges Well done Karime!

[LiamRobMac @LiamRobMac]

@johnwread @Bill_Vicenzino I agree. In our paper no causation implied. Physical and psychological remain inseparable thus temporal relationship is somewhat irrelevant. Interventions addressing any problem (MSK or other) should address both concomitantly.

[LiamRobMac @LiamRobMac]

@johnwread @Bill_Vicenzino Kinesiophobia was prevalent. And psych features associated to PFP-related disability. Not all psych features require psych intervention, but ALL need acknowledging. Pain has a profound psychological impact. Impossible to deliver a physical intervention without considering psych.

@Brad_Neal_07 @Bill_Vicenzino @NatJCollins @paulwhodges @EFIC_org Thanks Brad.
Hope you and your family are well.

[LiamRobMac @LiamRobMac]

Largest data set to date of psych factors and pain profiles in adults with PFP. Nociplastic changes and elevated psychological factors common findings.

Thank you coauthors @NatJCollins, @paulwhodges & @Bill_Vicenzino and @EFIC_org.

Do you prescribe Hip exercises for those w Patellofemoral Pain?

Are Hip Ex's superior to Foot orthoses? (n=109 Vs n=109).

Does foot mobility affect the outcome? Does is influence your advice?

My PhD work and RCT (n=218) explored this and more...

@kaymcrossley @Bill_Vicenzino @uqshrs @PeteLawrenson Thanks @kaymcrossley. If I learned anything from graduation, it was the reason why, in the summer, people in Queensland don't wear kilts.

@benedsmith @MichaelRathleff @aausund Congratulations Michael. A well-deserved appointment in recognition of hard work and commitment.

[LiamRobMac @LiamRobMac]

@kaymcrossley @Bill_Vicenzino The biggest finding IMO was the small to moderate effects in all measures of pain and disability found with observation only. Research by virtue evoking improvements without intervention.

@dr_earl_boehm Yeah, need to earn money for a flight home somehow😁
