Development and evaluation of prefabricated antipronation foot orthosis (2013)
Journal Article
Majumdar, R., Laxton, P., Thuesen, A., Richards, B., Liu, A., Aran-Ais, F., …Nester, C. (2013). Development and evaluation of prefabricated antipronation foot orthosis. Journal of rehabilitation research and development, 50(10), 1332-1342. https://doi.org/10.1682/JRRD.2013.02.0038

Our aim was to develop and evaluate a new antipronation foot orthosis that addressed problems perceived by clinicians and users with existing foot orthoses. Clinicians and users were engaged to develop a user specification for the orthosis, and ort... Read More about Development and evaluation of prefabricated antipronation foot orthosis.

Lower limb kinematics of subjects with chronic Achilles tendon injury during running (2008)
Journal Article
Donoghue, O., Harrison, A., Laxton, P., & Jones, R. (2008). Lower limb kinematics of subjects with chronic Achilles tendon injury during running. Research in Sports Medicine, 16(1), 23-38. https://doi.org/10.1080/15438620701693231

This study examined the kinematic differences between subjects who had a history of chronic Achilles tendon (AT) injury and matched controls during running. Eleven subjects from each group ran barefoot (BF) and shod at self-selected speeds on a tr... Read More about Lower limb kinematics of subjects with chronic Achilles tendon injury during running.

Orthotic control of rear foot and lower limb motion during running in participants with chronic Achilles tendon injury (2008)
Journal Article
Donoghue, O., Harrison, A., Laxton, P., & Jones, R. (2008). Orthotic control of rear foot and lower limb motion during running in participants with chronic Achilles tendon injury. Sports Biomechanics, 7(2), 194-205. https://doi.org/10.1080/14763140701841407

This study examined the kinematic effects of orthoses in participants with a history of chronic Achilles tendon injury. Twelve participants ran at self-selected speeds on a treadmill with and without customized orthoses. Joint and segment angles in...
