Journal ArticleDOI
The effect of office concepts on worker health and performance: a systematic review of the literature
TL;DR: It is suggested that ergonomists involved in office innovation could play a meaningful role in safeguarding the worker's job demands, job resources and well-being and effects of workplace openness by providing acoustic and visual protection.
Journal ArticleDOI
Return to Sports and Physical Activity After Total and Unicondylar Knee Arthroplasty: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
Suzanne Witjes,Vincent Gouttebarge,P. Paul F. M. Kuijer,Rutger C. I. van Geenen,Rudolf W. Poolman,Gino M. M. J. Kerkhoffs +5 more
TL;DR: It is clear that more patients RTS (including higher-impact types of sports) after UKA than after TKA, but the overall quality of included studies was limited, mainly because confounding factors were inadequately taken into account in most studies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of training and lifting equipment for preventing back pain in lifting and handling: systematic review
Kari-Pekka Martimo,Jos Verbeek,Jaro Karppinen,Andrea D Furlan,Esa-Pekka Takala,P. Paul F. M. Kuijer,Merja Jauhiainen,Eira Viikari-Juntura +7 more
TL;DR: There is no evidence to support use of advice or training in working techniques with or without lifting equipment for preventing back pain or consequent disability, and the findings challenge current widespread practice of advising workers on correct lifting technique.
Journal ArticleDOI

Jos Verbeek,Kari-Pekka Martimo,Jaro Karppinen,P. Paul F. M. Kuijer,Eira Viikari-Juntura,Esa-Pekka Takala +5 more
TL;DR: There is moderate quality evidence that MMH advice and training with or without assistive devices does not prevent back pain or back pain-related disability when compared to no intervention or alternative interventions.
Journal ArticleDOI
