Current Practices for Mental Fatigue Quantification and Induction in Movement Science: Introducing the SPeCIFY Guidelines.

Sports Med

September 2025

Mental fatigue (MF) is a complex phenomenon with significant implications for human performance, for which there are numerous studies investigating the effects of MF. Nevertheless, there is considerable variability in the approaches used to induce and quantify MF, making it hard to compare findings across studies and draw well-supported conclusions. This review addresses the methodological variability in the induction and quantification methods of MF in movement science in the following ways: on the one hand, by providing an overview of task design strategies to induce MF, emphasizing the importance of tailoring task duration, difficulty, and nature to individual participants and specific research contexts; on the other hand, by providing an overview of current methods used to quantify MF, including behavioural, subjective, and physiological measures, and highlighting the strengths and limitations of each.

Therapeutics Update in Immune Mediated Rheumatic Diseases: Rheumatoid Arthritis, Idiopathic Inflammatory Myositis and ANCA Associated Vasculitis.

Clin Med (Lond)

September 2025

Rheumatology Research Group, Department of Inflammation and Ageing, College of Medicine & Health, University of Birmingham, Birmingham, UK.; National Institute for Health Research (NIHR) Birmingham Biomedical Research Centre, University Hospitals Birmingham NHS Foundation Trust, Birmingham, UK.

Immune-mediated inflammatory diseases (IMIDs) are a group of common clinically diverse conditions which are characterised by systemic inflammation. They often pose medical challenges due to their multi organ involvement, chronicity, associated co-morbidities and poor impact on quality of life to patients. The management for IMIDs has changed profoundly over the past twenty years with the paradigm of treatment shifting away from broad immunosuppression towards pathway specific targeted treatment.
