New paper out - take a look! Meta-Analysis of Goal Setting and Physical Treatment Categorisation for Focal Spasticity Following Stroke or Other Acquired Brain Injury - Stephen Ashford, Jorge Jacinto, Klemens Fheodoroff, Lynne Turner-Stokes, 2025 doi.org/10.1177/2753...

The #SpendingReview's £4bn overall increase in funding for adult social care by 2028/29 is only enough to prevent a further deterioration in services. Our analysis from May projects costs of meeting growing demand for care in England and making improvements up to 2034/35 ⬇️

🔥 Most important paper I've read all year🔥 👉 Injury/disease doesn't reliably predict pain 👉 Biomarkers alone can't explain pain 👉 PSYCHOSOCIAL factors reliably determine chronic pain 👉 Painful conditions can be predicted from the SYNERGY btwn bio + psychosocial factors www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Cochrane rightly pointed out that their own review of exercise therapy for ME was “based on a research question and a set of methods from 2002, and reflects evidence from studies that applied definitions of ME/CFS from the 1990s" and convened a panel for an update. The update was then cancelled
