Injury-inciting activities in male and female football players: a systematic review (2022)
Journal Article
Aiello, F., Impellizzeri, F. M., Brown, S. J., Serner, A., & Mccall, A. (2023). Injury-inciting activities in male and female football players: a systematic review. Sports Medicine, 53(1), 151-176. https://doi.org/10.1007/s40279-022-01753-5

Background
A comprehensive examination of the sport-specific activities performed around the time of injury is important to hypothesise injury mechanisms, develop prevention strategies, improve management, and inform future investigations. The aim o... Read More about Injury-inciting activities in male and female football players: a systematic review.

Immediate effect of a spinal mobilisation intervention on muscle stiffness, tone and elasticity in subjects with lower back pain – A randomised cross-over trial (2021)
Journal Article
Hamilton, R., Garden, C. L., & Brown, S. J. (2022). Immediate effect of a spinal mobilisation intervention on muscle stiffness, tone and elasticity in subjects with lower back pain – A randomised cross-over trial. Journal of Bodywork and Movement Therapies, 29, 60-67

Background: Despite the lack of objective evidence, spinal manual therapies have been common practice for many years, particularly for treatment of lower back pain (LBP). This exploratory study measured and analysed the effect of a spinal mobilisatio...

Marker location and knee joint model constraint affect the reporting of overhead squat kinematics in elite youth football players (2021)
Journal Article
Coyne, L. M., Newell, M., Hoozemans, M. J. M., Morrison, A., & Brown, S. J. (2024). Marker location and knee joint model constraint affect the reporting of overhead squat kinematics in elite youth football players. Sports Biomechanics, 23(6), 740-757. https://doi.org/10.1080/14763141.2021.1890197

Motion capture systems are used in the analysis and interpretation of athlete movement patterns for a variety of reasons, but data integrity remains critical regardless of the purpose of measurement. The extent to which marker location or constrainin...

A biomechanical investigation of a spinal mobilisation intervention with Multiple Sclerosis patients (2019)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Hamilton, R., Brown, S., & Garden, C. (2019, October). A biomechanical investigation of a spinal mobilisation intervention with Multiple Sclerosis patients. Poster presented at Rehabilitation in Multiple Sclerosis, Special Interest Group on Mobility, Glasgow, UK

Final PhD results with comparisons over 3 studies investigating a biomechanical analysis of a spinal mobilisation therapy analysing muscle tissue quality, functional balance and movement measures, self-reported pain and self-reported fatigue.

Joint range of motion entropy changes in response to load carriage in military personnel (2019)
Journal Article
Morrison, A., Hale, J., & Brown, S. (2019). Joint range of motion entropy changes in response to load carriage in military personnel. Human Movement Science, 66, Article 249-257. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.humov.2019.04.014

Background
Overuse accounts for 82% of injuries in military personnel, and these occur predominantly in the spine and low limbs. While non-linear analyses have shown changes in overall stability of the movement during load carriage, individual joint...

Non-contact injury incidence and warm-up observation in hockey in Scotland (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Johnston, T., Brown, S., Kaliarntas, K., & Taylor, C. (2016, August). Non-contact injury incidence and warm-up observation in hockey in Scotland. Poster presented at International Sports Science + Sports Medicine Conference 2016

Noncontact injuries occur during manoeuvres such as landing, accelerating and the side-cut. This investigation has assessed the prevalence and manoeuvres associated with noncontact injuries and the current warm up practice. An online questionnaire wa...

Effect of 6-iron club properties on thorax and pelvis rotation at key events of the golf swing (2008)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Betzler, N., Brown, S., Wallace, E. S., Otto, S. R., & Shan, G. (2008, March). Effect of 6-iron club properties on thorax and pelvis rotation at key events of the golf swing. Presented at World Scientific Congress of Golf V

Various previous studies analysed trunk alignment at key events of the golf swing, but in most cases players swung only one type of golf club or clubs from different categories (for example a driver and a 5-iron). However, a better understanding of h... Read More about Effect of 6-iron club properties on thorax and pelvis rotation at key events of the golf swing.
