Bare Foot and In-shoe Plantar Pressure in Diabetic Males and Females - Is There Difference? [PDF]
Med Devices (Auckl), 2021 High plantar pressure is one of the factors associated with foot ulceration in diabetic patients. High-risk limbs could eventually be identified through this approach. The study was conducted to evaluate the difference in the barefoot and in-shoe plantar pressure among diabetic males and females.A cross-sectional study was conducted and purposive ...
