Optimisation of rocker sole footwear for prevention of first plantar ulcer : comparison of group-optimised and individually-selected footwear designs. Journal of Foot and Ankle Research, 10(1), 27. https://doi.org/10.1186/s13047-017-0208-3

Background: Appropriate footwear for individuals with diabetes but no ulceration history could reduce the risk of first ulceration. However, individuals who deem themselves at low risk are unlikely to seek out bespoke footwear which is personalised....

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.
