Joseph N. Liu is an orthopedic surgery researcher whose work focuses on shoulder, knee, and sports medicine conditions, including shoulder arthroplasty, ACL and meniscal injuries, and knee osteoarthritis. A large portion of his recent output involves systematic reviews and meta-analyses that examine methodological quality issues in the orthopedic literature, such as reporting bias, 'spin' in study abstracts, and the influence of industry funding on reported outcomes. His research is intended for orthopedic surgeons, sports medicine physicians, and clinical researchers interested in evidence-based practice and surgical outcomes.
