Abstract | Full text | PDF
| PubMed
|
Editor’s summary
A systematic review of 6 trials involving 365 participants concludes that although there are too few studies to assess whether stretching is effective compared to control or other interventions, there is some evidence that plantar fascia stretching may be more effective than Achilles tendon stretching alone.

Clinical utility of tibial motor and sensory nerve conduction studies with motor recording from the flexor hallucis brevis: a methodological and reliability study

Editor’s summary
The flexor hallucis brevis (FHB) is a potential alternative site to abductor hallucis for recording tibial nerve function in those with posterior tarsal tunnel syndrome. This study shows that motor recording from the FHB provides technically clear waveforms that allow for an improved ability to assess tibial nerve function.
