As the authors of manuscript entitled 'Movement-evoked pain is not associated with at rest or physical function in knee osteoarthritis' (Lozano-Meca et al., 2024), recently published European Journal Pain, we have read recent publication commentary by Johnson al.

We hereby provide some clarifications that will certainly help potential readers and, turn, enhance scientific conceptualization movement-evoked (MEP, hereinafter). a matter fact, state 'the assertion associations between MEP PAR been studied KOA inaccurate; multiple studies examined this relationship other musculoskeletal conditions (Fullwood 2021)'.
