160: Being evidence based : a health library perspective (2017)
Journal Article
Brettle, A. (2017). 160: Being evidence based : a health library perspective. BMJ Open, 7(Suppl), https://doi.org/10.1136/bmjopen-2016-015415.160

Health librarians play a key role in the evidence based practice (EBP) movement by providing services and support to find, access, interpret and disseminate evidence. Health librarians also pioneered the concept of evidence based practice within the... Read More about 160: Being evidence based : a health library perspective.

Challenging the foundations of the clinical model of foot function : further evidence that the Root model assessments fail to appropriately classify foot function (2017)
Journal Article
Jarvis, H., Nester, C., Bowden, P., & Jones, R. (2017). Challenging the foundations of the clinical model of foot function : further evidence that the Root model assessments fail to appropriately classify foot function. Journal of Foot and Ankle Research, 10(7), https://doi.org/10.1186/s13047-017-0189-2

Background The Root model of normal and abnormal foot function remains the basis for clinical foot orthotic practice globally. Our aim was to investigate the relationship between foot deformities and kinematic compensations that are the foundations...

Strength and endurance training reduces the loss of eccentric hamstring torque observed after soccer specific fatigue (2017)
Journal Article
Matthews, M., Heron, K., Todd, S., Tomlinson, A., Jones, P., Delextrat, A., & Cohen, D. (2017). Strength and endurance training reduces the loss of eccentric hamstring torque observed after soccer specific fatigue. Physical Therapy in Sport, 25, 39-46. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ptsp.2017.01.006

Objectives: To investigate the effect of two hamstring training protocols on eccentric peak torque before and after soccer specific fatigue. Participants: Twenty-two university male soccer players. Design: Isokinetic strength tests were performed... Read More about Strength and endurance training reduces the loss of eccentric hamstring torque observed after soccer specific fatigue.

Interrogating trans and sexual identities through the conceptual lens of translocational positionality (2017)
Journal Article
Rogers, M., & Ahmed, A. (2017). Interrogating trans and sexual identities through the conceptual lens of translocational positionality. Sociological Research Online, 22(1), 1-14. https://doi.org/10.5153/sro.4169

This article explores the confluence of trans identity and sexuality drawing on the concept of translocational positionality. In this discussion, a broad spectrum of gendered positionalities incorporates trans identity which, in turn, acknowledges no...

Large scale population assessment of physical activity using wrist worn accelerometers: The UK Biobank Study (2017)
Journal Article
Doherty, A., Hammerla, N., Jackson, D., Plötz, T., Olivier, P., Granat, M., …Wareham, N. (2017). Large scale population assessment of physical activity using wrist worn accelerometers: The UK Biobank Study. PLoS ONE, 12(2), e0169649. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0169649

BACKGROUND: Physical activity has not been objectively measured in prospective cohorts with sufficiently large numbers to reliably detect associations with multiple health outcomes. Technological advances now make this possible. We describe the metho... Read More about Large scale population assessment of physical activity using wrist worn accelerometers: The UK Biobank Study.

'Throughout my life I've had people walk all over me': trauma in the lives of violent men (2017)
Journal Article
Ellis, A., Winlow, S., & Hall, S. (2017). 'Throughout my life I've had people walk all over me': trauma in the lives of violent men. Sociological Review, 65(4), 699-713. https://doi.org/10.1177/0038026117695486

In this article we present original qualitative data gathered during prolonged ethnographic fieldwork with violent men in deindustrialised communities in the north of England. We use the data as an empirical platform for a theoretical exploration of... Read More about 'Throughout my life I've had people walk all over me': trauma in the lives of violent men.

Enhancing the force-velocity profile of athletes using weightlifting derivatives (2017)
Journal Article
Suchomel, T., Comfort, P., & Lake, P. (2017). Enhancing the force-velocity profile of athletes using weightlifting derivatives. Strength and Conditioning Journal, 39(1), 10-20. https://doi.org/10.1519/SSC.0000000000000275

Weightlifting movements and their derivatives may be implemented in a sequenced progression throughout the training year to optimize the development of an athlete’s strength, rate of force development, and power output. Weightlifting movements and th... Read More about Enhancing the force-velocity profile of athletes using weightlifting derivatives.
