Earlier this week Dr. Jerome Fryer started a Go Fund Me campaign and the objective was to raise $15 000 to investigate the mechanism behind the "popping" or "cracking" sound of synovial joints. I am humbled and delighted to announce that the funding requirements have been met. The Vancouver Foundation stepped up big time. What […]
As clinicians, we must keep in mind that there isn't always evidence that supports or refutes our treatment plans nor the outcomes that we can achieve. Learning how to write up evidence-based case reports is one way how we can communicate to ourselves and other health professionals of practice-based approaches. This short, free article provides […]
Looks like the Ontario Chiropractic Association is stepping up the game to get DCs in the province advanced imaging (CT, MRI, DxUS) and laboratory diagnosis (blood, urinalysis, chemistry, microbiology, serology) so we can better make differential diagnoses in the management of our patients. There is a survey that is being sent out to OCA members, […]
"Thirteen studies with a total of 1313 participants were included in the systematic review, and 12 studies with 977 participants in the meta-analysis. For most time-points prescriptive studies found manipulation to be superior to mobilization for both pain and disability. At no time-point did pragmatic designs find a difference between mobilization and manipulation for either […]

Greg Kawchuk's main messages at the ECU conference: 1: There's no better time to be a chiropractor 2: Everyone recommends what we do 3: We are not alternative anymore Who would have thought 30 years ago, that every single new guideline on MSK pain is now advocating 'no drugs, no surgery, no imaging' but a […]

Traumatic brain injury in homeless and marginally housed individuals: a systematic review and meta-analysis The lifetime prevalence of TBI is high among homeless and marginally housed individuals, and a history of TBI is associated with poorer health and general functioning. Health-care providers and public health officials should have an increased awareness of the burden of […]
Pupillary changes after clinically asymptomatic high-acceleration head impacts in high school football athletes Measurable changes in pupil response were demonstrated following an HHI. These results suggest that clinically asymptomatic HHIs may affect brain reflex pathways, reflecting a biological injury previously seen when more invasive methods were applied. #science #chiropractor #chiropractic #research #education #evidence based #patient […]
Exercise treatment effect modifiers in persistent low back pain: an individual participant data meta-analysis of 3514 participants from 27 randomised controlled trials This study provides potentially useful information to help treat patients and design future studies of exercise interventions that are better matched to specific subgroups. #science #chiropractor #chiropractic #research #education #evidence based #patient centered […]
IMPORTANCE OF EARLY IMPROVEMENT IN THE TREATMENT OF LOW BACK PAIN WITH PHYSICAL THERAPY: OPL57 patients demonstrated roughly two-thirds of their improvement in the first 40% of visits regardless of their symptom duration. This study may help clinicians identify a need to modify a plan of care if insufficient early improvement is observed. #science #chiropractor […]
Load magnitude affects patellar tendon mechanical properties but not collagen or collagen cross-linking after long-term strength training in older adults Despite equal improvements in tendon size after moderate and heavy load resistance training, only heavy. load training seemed to maintain tendon mechanical properties in old age. The effect of load magnitude on tendon biomechanics was […]
Unilateral and Multiple Cavitation Sounds During Lumbosacral Spinal Manipulation Based on our findings, spinal manipulative therapy practitioners should expect multiple PSs that most often occur on the upside or the downside facet articulations when performing HVLA thrust manipulation to the lumbosacral junction (ie, L5-S1). However, whether the multiple PSs found in this study emanated from […]
Reviews may overestimate the effectiveness of medicines for back pain: systematic review and meta-analysis Systematic-reviews should include reports of unpublished trials. The result for muscle relaxants conflicts with the conclusion of the published review and recent international guidelines. Adding unpublished data strengthens the evidence that opioid analgesics have small effects on persistent low back pain […]
Electrophysiological Function of the Lumbar Multifidus and Erector Spinae Muscles in Elderly Patients With Chronic Low Back Pain ES dominance was seen in the motion-induced LBP cohort, both in lumbar extension and flexion, according to the EMCE ratio. Subgrouping of patients according to the induction of LBP seems to be important for CLBP treatment, and […]
Combined impact of lifestyle factors on low back pain: A cross-sectional study of over 400,000 Japanese adults In summary, we investigated the combined effects of multiple unhealthy lifestyle behaviors on LBP among more than 400,000 Japanese adults. Our results indicated that the accumulation of unhealthy lifestyle factors was associated with increased LBP, and this was […]
Ibuprofen Plus Acetaminophen Versus Ibuprofen Alone for Acute Low Back Pain: An Emergency Department-based Randomized Study. Among ED patients with acute, nontraumatic, nonradicular LBP, adding acetaminophen to ibuprofen does not improve outcomes within 1 week. #science #chiropractor #chiropractic #research #education #evidence based #patient centered #interprofessional #collaborative #rehabilitation #public health #spinal health #musculoskeletal health #ethics #pain […]
Ten-Hour Time-Restricted Eating Reduces Weight, Blood Pressure, and Atherogenic Lipids in Patients with Metabolic Syndrome We found this TRE intervention improves cardiometabolic health for patients with metabolic syndrome receiving standard medical care including high rates of statin and anti-hypertensive use. TRE is a potentially powerful lifestyle intervention that can be added to standard medical practice […]
Paracetamol and pain: the kiloton problem Patients with pain regard only large reductions in that pain to be relevant, and large reductions in pain are accompanied by major improvements in associated symptoms, including quality of life, function and work, and lower costs to health services.19 ,20 We know that only a minority of patients have […]
