Introduction
Beckwith-Wiedemann Syndrome (BWS) is a congenital condition where patients have macroglossia, often requiring tongue reduction surgery as well as being a potential risk factor for obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA). Prevalence of OSA is high and therefore sleep studies (SS) pre- and post-surgery are useful to assess the impact of surgery....

Methods: 194 patients undergoing pre-operative spirometry assessments between January 2012 to...
To identify the effect of modifying sidestep cutting technique on knee loads and predict what impact such change would have on the risk of noncontact anterior cruciate ligament injury.
A force platform and motion-analysis system were used to record ground-reaction forces and track the trajectories of markers on 15 healthy males performing sidestep...
