Editor’s summary
McCormick and colleagues report on the mechanical effects and perceived credibility of a range of 'sham orthoses', and conclude that a contoured polyethylene orthosis is the most appropriate
comparator device in clinical trials where a small mechanical effect across all regions of the foot is desired.
