Reposted by Fraje WatsonAnne-Marie Hanff @ahanff.bsky.social · 20/01/2024WHAT WE FOUND: We used different statistical methods to assess if apathy (lack of motivation) in people with PD changed over time. The linear mixed effects models showed a significant increase in apathy each year whereas other methods did not find this increase. 452

Fraje Watson @fraje.bsky.social · 15/12/2023As a non-engineer working in an engineering lab, I've always been amazed and impressed that people write and run code complex enough to be left for hours/days to run. So I'm _pretty_ smug right now waiting 15 mins for a code to run💅💅💅 180

Fraje Watson @fraje.bsky.social · 03/11/2023⭐no trunk/pelvis kinematic measures reached statistical significance between lower limb amputees with/without LBP ⭐biomechanical studies on lower limb amputees are bad at reporting biopsychosocial measures of LBP (there's a recommended 41-item list🤯) 100
Fraje Watson @fraje.bsky.social · 03/11/2023⭐lower limb amputation and low back pain (LBP) both independently affect movement patterns and biopsychosocial outcomes ⭐age, weight, height and BMI (that traditionally affect LBP in non-amputees) are not significantly different for lower limb amputees with/without LBP 100
