Long-term health outcomes associated with an exercise referral scheme : an observational longitudinal follow-up study (2019)
Journal Article
Prior, F., Coffey, M., Robins, A., & Cook, P. (2019). Long-term health outcomes associated with an exercise referral scheme : an observational longitudinal follow-up study. Journal of Physical Activity and Health, 16(4), 288-293. https://doi.org/10.1123/jpah.2018-0442

Background: Exercise referral schemes (ERSs) support inactive adults, who have chronic health conditions, to become physically active. Uncertainty exists regarding the effectiveness of ERSs, with few studies evaluating their long-term impact. The aim...

Mapping the UK renal psychosocial workforce : the first comprehensive workforce survey (2019)
Journal Article
Seekles, M., Ormandy, P., & Coyne, E. (2019). Mapping the UK renal psychosocial workforce : the first comprehensive workforce survey. BMC Nephrology, 20, 100. https://doi.org/10.1186/s12882-019-1287-0

Background: Emerging evidence of psychosocial problems in CKD patients has led to an acceptance that a focus
on the emotional wellbeing of the patient should be included in the provision of comprehensive CKD care. It is
unclear if an increased atte... Read More about Mapping the UK renal psychosocial workforce : the first comprehensive workforce survey.

A three-site clinical feasibility study of a flexible functional electrical stimulation system to support functional task practice for upper limb recovery in people with stroke (2019)
Journal Article

Introduction: Of those people who survive a stroke, only between 40 and 70% regain upper limb dexterity. A number of reviews have suggested that functional electrical stimulation (FES) may have a beneficial effect on upper limb motor recovery. In lig...

Effects of gleno-humeral joint center mislocation on shoulder kinematics and kinetics (2019)
Journal Article
Lempereur, M., Brochard, S., Leboucher, J., Leboeuf, F., Rémy-néris, O., & Borotikar, B. (2019). Effects of gleno-humeral joint center mislocation on shoulder kinematics and kinetics. Computer Methods in Biomechanics and Biomedical Engineering, 22(7), 764-771. https://doi.org/10.1080/10255842.2019.1590822

The gleno-humeral (GH) rotation centre is typically estimated using predictive or functional methods, however these methods may lead to location errors. This study aimed at determining a location error threshold above which statistically significant...
