Lower Limb Biomechanical Observations in Hypermobile Children
Generalised joint hypermobility (GJH) describes an excessive range of joint movement and is associated with increased musculoskeletal injury risk, joint pain, and instability. This study compares lower limb biomechanical characteristics between children with and without GJH. Children aged 5-18 years with GJH (Beighton score ≥ 6/9 pre-puberty, ≥5/9 post-puberty) were age- and sex-matched with controls (Beighton score ≤ 2/9). Biomechanical measures…

Increasing health literacy may be an important part of multicomponent interventions seeking to improve the health and wellbeing of social housing tenants
The Impact of Podiatric Intervention on the Quality of Life and Pain in Children and Adolescents with Hypermobility
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of custom-made orthotics on pain, health-related quality of life (HRQoL), function and fatigue in children and adolescents with generalised joint hypermobility (GJH) and lower limb pain. Fifty-three children aged 5-18 years were fitted with custom-made polypropylene orthotics. Visual analogue scale (VAS) assessed lower limb pain severity, Paediatric Quality of Life Inventory assessed HRQoL and …
The health and wellbeing of Australian social housing tenants compared to people living in other types of housing
Although these findings are not unexpected, they provide more detailed evidence that social housing providers and policy makers should consider when planning future initiatives
Experiences of Patient-Centered Care Among Older Community-Dwelling Australians
Background: Older adults represent the largest consumers of health care. It is, therefore, important that they receive adequate patient-centered care to empower them to be proactive in managing their health. Aims: This study examined the proportion of older community-dwelling individuals who report receiving patient-centered care during healthcare consultations. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted with 117 clients of an Australian aged…
Physical Examination Tool for Swollen and Tender Lower Limb Joints in Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis
Results indicate potential clinical reliability; however, the validity and diagnostic accuracy of the proposed PE tool remains unclear due to low kappa coefficients and inconsistent agreements between PE and MRI results. Further research will be required before the tool may be used in a clinical setting
Preparation for Cancer Treatment
Given the significant physical and psychosocial side-effects cancer treatment has on individuals, it is important to ensure patients receive adequate preparation prior to treatment. The purpose of this study was to explore, among Australian oncology patients, (i) the self-reported treatment preparation information they received; and (ii) the patient characteristics associated with the treatment preparation information received. Patients in the ea…
The wellbeing needs of social housing tenants in Australia
More research describing tenant wellbeing needs is required to guide initiatives improving tenant wellbeing. Development of a standardised tool to measure and prioritise tenant wellbeing needs would be beneficial. There is a need for well-controlled research to establish the potential effectiveness and cost effectiveness of initiatives implemented at the policy or housing provider level. Future research must consider the multifaceted needs of thi…
