Abstract | Full text | PDF

|
Editor’s summary
A systematic review of 6 trials indicates that there is good evidence (Level II) to suggest oral terbinafine is as safe and effective as itraconazole therapy for the treatment of onychomycosis in people with diabetes.

The effect of customised and sham foot orthoses on plantar pressures
Chris J McCormick, Daniel R Bonanno, Karl B Landorf Journal of Foot and Ankle Research 2013, 6:19 (17 May 2013)
Abstract | Full text | PDF
| PubMed
|
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.

The effectiveness of manual stretching in the treatment of plantar heel pain: a systematic review

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.
