Reliability of hop distance and frontal-plane dynamic knee valgus angle during single-leg horizontal hop test (2015)
Journal Article
valgus angle during single-leg horizontal hop test. Journal of Athletic Enhancement, 4(6), https://doi.org/10.4172/2324-9080.1000218

Context: Single-leg hop for distance (SHD) performance and twodimensional (2-D) video assessment of frontal-plane knee valgus, during the single-leg landings, have been reported to identify the risk of knee injuries such as patellofemoral pain syn...

Lateral wedge insoles for reducing biomechanical risk factors for medial knee osteoarthritis progression : a systematic review and meta-analysis (2015)
Journal Article
Arnold, J., Wong, D., Jones, R., Hill, C., & Thewlis, D. (2016). Lateral wedge insoles for reducing biomechanical risk factors for medial knee osteoarthritis progression : a systematic review and meta-analysis. Arthritis and Rheumatism, 68(7), 936-951. https://doi.org/10.1002/acr.22797

Objective Lateral wedge insoles are intended to reduce biomechanical risk factors of medial knee osteoarthritis (OA) progression, such as increased knee joint load; however, there has been no definitive consensus on this topic. The aim of this syst... Read More about Lateral wedge insoles for reducing biomechanical risk factors for medial knee osteoarthritis progression : a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Recommendations for the conduct of efficacy trials of treatment devices for osteoarthritis : a report from a working group of the Arthritis Research UK Osteoarthritis and Crystal Diseases Clinical Studies Group (2015)
Journal Article
Felson, D., Redmond, A., Chapman, G., Smith, T., Hamilton, D., Jones, R., …Conaghan, P. (2016). Recommendations for the conduct of efficacy trials of treatment devices for osteoarthritis : a report from a working group of the Arthritis Research UK Osteoarthritis and Crystal Diseases Clinical Studies Group. Rheumatology, 55(2), 320-326. https://doi.org/10.1093/rheumatology/kev328

Objective. There are unique challenges to designing and carrying out high-quality trials testing therapeutic devices in OA and other rheumatic diseases. Such challenges include determining the mechanisms of action of the device and the appropriate sh...

The effect of different types of insoles or shoe modifications on medial loading of the knee in persons with medial knee osteoarthritis : a randomised trial (2015)
Journal Article
Jones, R., Chapman, G., Parkes, M., Forsythe, L., & Felson, D. (2015). The effect of different types of insoles or shoe modifications on medial loading of the knee in persons with medial knee osteoarthritis : a randomised trial. Journal of Orthopaedic Research, 33(11), 1646-1654. https://doi.org/10.1002/jor.22947

Many conservative treatments exist for medial knee osteoarthritis (OA) which aims to reduce the external knee adduction moment (EKAM). The objective of this study was to determine the difference between different shoes and lateral wedge insoles on EK...

The effectiveness of an exercise programme on knee loading, muscle co-contraction, and pain in patients with medial knee osteoarthritis : A pilot study (2015)
Journal Article
Al-Khlaifat, L., Herrington, L., Hammond, A., Tyson, S., & Jones, R. (2016). The effectiveness of an exercise programme on knee loading, muscle co-contraction, and pain in patients with medial knee osteoarthritis : A pilot study. ˜The œKnee (Amsterdam. Online), 23(1), 63-69. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.knee.2015.03.014

Background: Knee loading, muscle co-contraction, and pain are increased in knee osteoarthritis (OA). Exercises decreased pain in knee OA, yet OA is a mechanical disease and biomechanical changes need to be explored as well. Therefore, this study ai...

Ankle motion influences the external knee adduction moment and may predict who will respond to lateral wedge insoles? : an ancillary analysis from the SILK trial (2015)
Journal Article
Chapman, G., Parkes, M., Forsythe, L., Felson, D., & Jones, R. (2015). Ankle motion influences the external knee adduction moment and may predict who will respond to lateral wedge insoles? : an ancillary analysis from the SILK trial. Osteoarthritis and Cartilage, 23(8), 1316-1322. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.joca.2015.02.164

Objective: Lateral wedge insoles are a potential simple treatment for medial knee osteoarthritis (OA) patients by reducing the external knee adduction moment (EKAM). However in some patients, an increase in their EKAM is seen. Understanding the rol...
