Over recent weeks I have heard about some trials struggling with the phenomenon known as “Lasagne’s Law.” I’ve flagged this issue before, but always good to revisit it and discuss what can be done to minimise it 1/7 #MethodologyMonday #121

Really interesting analysis of foot OA research by @hyltonmenz.bsky.social @hannanmt.bsky.social & team. Small numbers all round but not good that only 26% of papers focussed on evaluating treatments & 42% of all papers weren't funded. Need more adequately funded trials in this common condition
