Short-Term Effect of Spinal Manipulation on Pain Perception, Spinal Mobility, and Full Height Recovery in Male Subjects With Degenerative Disk Disease: A Randomized Controlled Trial

TL;DR: An HVLA SM in the lumbosacral joint performed on men with degenerative disk disease immediately improves self-perceived pain, spinal mobility in flexion, hip flexion during the passive SLR test, and subjects' full height.
Journal ArticleDOI

Neural responses to the mechanical characteristics of high velocity, low amplitude spinal manipulation: effect of specific contact site

TL;DR: This animal study showed that contact site for an HVLA-SM can have a significant effect on the magnitude of sensory input arising from muscle spindles in the back.
Journal ArticleDOI

Abstracts of low back pain trials are poorly reported, contain spin of information and are inconsistent with the full text: An overview study.

TL;DR: The abstracts were incomplete, with spin and inconsistent with the full text, and health care professionals are advised to avoid making clinical decisions based solely upon abstracts.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of Axial Torsion on Disc Height Distribution: An In Vivo Study

TL;DR: This study quantified important tensile/compressive changes disc height during torsion relevant to manipulation in vivo and the implications of these mutually opposing changes on spinal manipulation are still unknown.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of unilateral facet fixation and facetectomy on muscle spindle responsiveness during simulated spinal manipulation in an animal model.

TL;DR: The relationship between intervertebral joint mobility and alterations of primary afferent activity during and after various manual therapy interventions may be used to help to identify patient subpopulations who respond to different types of manual therapy and better inform practitioners (eg, chiropractic and osteopathic) delivering the therapeutic intervention.

CONSORT 2010 Statement: updated guidelines for reporting parallel group randomised trials

TL;DR: The Consort 2010 Statement as discussed by the authors has been used worldwide to improve the reporting of randomised controlled trials and has been updated by Schulz et al. in 2010, based on new methodological evidence and accumulating experience.

CONSORT 2010 Explanation and Elaboration: updated guidelines for reporting parallel group randomised trials

TL;DR: This update of the CONSORT statement improves the wording and clarity of the previous checklist and incorporates recommendations related to topics that have only recently received recognition, such as selective outcome reporting bias.

“Gray's Anatomy”

TL;DR: The comparison, made by Dr. W. D. Jeans in your last issue*, of Gray's Anatomy with the latest revision of its American offspring is an interesting exercise; but his conclusion that the original is a ‘better buy’, though pleasing to the producers of the “British” Gray’s Anatomy, is based upon the false premise that a second version is necessary.

CONSORT 2010 statement: updated guidelines for reporting parallel group randomized trials.

TL;DR: The CONSORT (Consolidated Standards of Reporting Trials) statement as discussed by the authors is used worldwide to improve the reporting of randomized, controlled trials. Schulz and colleagues describe the latest version, CONSORT 2010, which updates the reporting guideline based on new methodological evidence and accumulating experience.
