Long-Term Use of Anti-Pronation Insoles Enhances Inter-Joint Coordination in Individuals With Flat Feet. [PDF]

J Foot Ankle Res
ABSTRACT Background Flatfoot alters lower limb biomechanics and can negatively affect interjoint coordination during gait. Antipronation insoles are commonly prescribed to correct excessive foot pronation, yet their long‐term effects on interjoint coordination remain unclear.

Effects of Orthotic Insoles on Gait Biomechanics in Runners With Flatfoot Under Different Gait Loads. [PDF]

Scand J Med Sci Sports
ABSTRACT The purpose of this study was to quantify the biomechanical performance of the medial longitudinal arch (MLA) in the normal foot (NF), flatfoot (FF), and flatfoot with orthotic insoles (FF + insole) under different gait loads to identify their movement response strategies.

Variability of the lower limb symmetry index associated with the gait parameters in the overweight adult population with flatfoot: a case-control study

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2023
Background: Adult acquired flatfoot is characterized by a medial arch collapse during monopodal support in the stance phase, developing eversion of the calcaneus and abduction of the forefoot linked to the hindfoot.
