The influence of valgus heel position on foot loading in a child's gait

Acta Universitatis Palackianae Olomucensis. Gymnica, 2012
BACKGROUND: Flat foot is a typical clinical sign in childhood, expressed as valgus positioning of the heel during vertical foot loading. This may lead to medial deviation of the foot axis and cause overloading of some foot areas.

Effect of repeated hot water immersion on muscle strength, power, function and physical activity in healthy older adults: A randomised crossover trial

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Ageing leads to an increased prevalence of sarcopenia and frailty, characterised by progressive declines in muscle strength, power and function and reduced physical activity. Hot water immersion (HWI) could potentially improve muscle function, but this is yet to be explored in older adults.

Intraosseous myolipoma of the calcaneus

BMJ Case Reports
A man in his 40s presented with an incidental finding of an osteolytic bone lesion. He sustained an ankle injury while inline skating, fracturing his lateral malleolus. Besides the fracture, radiographic imaging on the day of the injury incidentally revealed a well-defined solitary osteolytic lesion with a sclerotic rim within the right calcaneus.

Movement Dynamics of Treadmill Running Within the Different Exercise Intensity Domains in Male Runners

European Journal of Sport Science, Volume 26, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT The aetiology of fatigue differs between exercise intensity domains, but limited research has explored non‐linear gait dynamics across them. To address this, this study aimed to investigate movement variability and stability in moderate, heavy, and severe intensity domains, and to examine how these dynamics evolve over time.

Relation Between Calcaneal Fat Pad Thickness and Plantar Foot Ulceration in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus

Journal of Foot and Ankle Research, Volume 19, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Thinning of fat pads may elevate the risk of developing plantar foot ulcers potentially resulting in lower‐extremity amputations. Evaluating whether fat pad thickness is associated with plantar foot ulceration could aid in early risk detection. This study therefore aims to compare fat pad thickness between type 2 diabetes mellitus

Intrinsic Foot Muscle Cross‐Sectional Area on MRI in People With and Without Plantar Heel Pain: A Cross‐Sectional Observational Study

Journal of Foot and Ankle Research, Volume 19, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction This study compared the cross‐sectional areas (CSA) of key intrinsic foot muscles in people with and without plantar heel pain (PHP). Methods Seventy‐five adults participated in the study: 50 participants with PHP and 25 age‐, sex‐, and body mass index (BMI)‐matched participants without PHP (control group).

Exploring the Role of Footwear in Trail Running and Hiking: A Scoping Review

Journal of Foot and Ankle Research, Volume 19, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Off‐road activities such as trail running and hiking have undergone a significant surge in global popularity over the last 2 decades, but this engagement also raises the potential for musculoskeletal injuries, which are prevalent and comparable to rates reported in road running.
