In 2025, will continue its mission to enhance research in the field of musculoskeletal rehabilitation. aims to support authors who are working to advance the research methods applied to answer clinical questions in the musculoskeletal rehabilitation field. Using the most robust methods helps authors ensure their studies can have immediate impact on health policies and clinical practice. With this editorial, we introduce a new gold open-access journal, , where research will be available to read for free, immediately upon publication. .

A patient in his 40s presented at the outpatient clinic with sudden pain and swelling over his medial malleolus, 16 weeks after he had undergone osteoperiosteal autografting with a medial malleolar osteotomy for his tertiary osteochondral lesion of the talus. Postoperatively, the patient was treated using the regular evidence-based rehabilitation protocol of 5 weeks of non-weight-bearing and 5 weeks of partial weight-bearing. However, after the confirmed radiological union the patient experienced an acute on chronic stress fracture through the osteotomy line.

Purpose: To investigate potential mechanisms of a digital rehabilitation intervention associated with improved mobility among adults undertaking rehabilitation.
Materials And Methods: Causal mediation analysis of the AMOUNT trial (ACTRN12614000936628). Participants were randomised to digitally-enabled rehabilitation (virtual reality video games, activity monitors, and handheld computer devices prescribed by a physiotherapist) and usual care or usual care alone.

This study includes musculoskeletal disorder (MSD) risk evaluation based on the IMU sensor data gathered from patient-lifting movement performed by healthcare specialists. This is a continuation of previous research focusing on a novel multicriteria statistical model integrating experimental and large-scale statistical datasets. The proposed model estimates MSD probabilities over 5, 10, and 15 years for the neck (0.

Background: High-velocity, low-amplitude (HVLA) manipulation is a common manual therapy technique used for treating pain and musculoskeletal dysfunction. An audible manipulation sound is commonly experienced by patients who undergo HVLA manipulation; however, there is little known about the effects and clinical relevance of the audible manipulation sound on cortical output and the autonomic nervous system. This study aimed to identify the immediate impact of the audible manipulation sound on brainwave activity and pupil diameter in asymptomatic subjects following an HVLA cervical manipulation.
