02 / Rehabilitation Research
Understand recovery.
Improve the questions we ask.
Clinical observations are a starting point. We use public data, outcome measurement and evidence synthesis to investigate recovery and the practical delivery of rehabilitation.
Clinical collaboration / Joint replacement
Earlier standing.
Faster recovery?

The Journal of Arthroplasty
A physiotherapist at a small hospital had an observation but no suitable local dataset or statistical support. Working together, we shaped a testable question and found an existing public cohort.

Same gain.
Different recovery time.
A clinical question.
A workable study.
The public-data analysis reports hip and knee replacement separately. It examines whether delayed first standing is associated with slower functional recovery during inpatient rehabilitation.
Zizi led the methods, formal analysis and research supervision, and supported the manuscript through revision and resubmission.

Recovery should not
depend on the journey.
How can people in remote and pastoral communities—including Inner Mongolia and Mongolia—receive timely rehabilitation after hip replacement? We are exploring care at home, meaningful follow-up and the work shared by patients, families and clinicians.
Rehabilitation beyond the clinicResearch capacity
Work with the
resources available.
Research consultation and tutoring help clinicians define outcomes, work with public or clinical data, interpret estimates and develop evidence synthesis.
