Consumer Grade Wearable Sensor Metrics Are Associated with Internal Forces at Common Running Injury Locations

INTRODUCTION: Inexpensive consumer-grade wearable sensors have expanded possibilities to assess, monitor, or modify a runner's gait. However, it is unclear which sensor-measured gait metrics are strongly associated with internal loading at common injury locations. PURPOSE: To mea...

SPIRIT-CONSORT-ELM: element-level annotated dataset and large language model approach for assessing randomized controlled trial reporting

Abstract Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) are central to assessing the benefits and harms of interventions, but incomplete reporting undermines their verifiability and usefulness. Although SPIRIT and CONSORT reporting guidelines promote complete reporting of RCT protocols and...
