Contributions of foot muscles and plantar fascia morphology to foot posture [PDF]
Gait and Posture, 2018 © 2018 Background: The plantar foot muscles and plantar fascia differ between different foot postures. However, how each individual plantar structure contribute to foot posture has not been explored. The purpose of this study was to investigate the associations between static foot posture and morphology of plantar foot muscles and plantar fascia and ...

Cutaneous Sensitivity Across Regions of the Foot Sole and Dorsum are Influenced by Foot Posture [PDF]
Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2022 Understanding the processing of tactile information is crucial for the development of biofeedback interventions that target cutaneous mechanoreceptors. Mechanics of the skin have been shown to influence cutaneous tactile sensitivity.

Reliability and validity of Foot Posture Index (FPI-6) for evaluating foot posture in participants with low back pain. [PDF]
Sci Rep, 2022 AbstractPrevious studies have demonstrated that Foot Posture Index (FPI-6) is a valid and moderately reliable tool to evaluate foot posture. However, data about reliability and validity of FPI-6 in the assessment of foot posture in people with low back pain (LBP) is lacking.

Analyzing Foot Posture Malalignments in Obese Individuals. [PDF]
CureusBackground and objective Obesity often leads to foot deformities due to the increased pressure on the feet, the body's most distal parts. Obesity-induced foot malalignments can impact foot posture, making it essential to study these changes for better understanding and management.

Foot Posture and Plantar Loading With Ankle Bracing. [PDF]
J Athl Train, 2021 Context Arch height is one important aspect of foot posture. An estimated 20% of the population has pes planus and 20% has pes cavus. These abnormal foot postures can alter lower extremity kinematics and plantar loading and contribute to injury risk. Ankle bracing is commonly used in sport to prevent these injuries,

Foot kinematics and kinetics data for different static foot posture collected using a multi-segment foot model [PDF]
Scientific DataThis dataset presents human foot joints kinematics and kinetics data during walking, classified by static foot posture, filling a gap in existing lower limb databases that lack data on foot joints beyond the ankle or on static posture data, despite its ...

Are clinical measures of foot posture and mobility associated with foot kinematics when walking?
Journal of Foot and Ankle Research, 2015 Background There is uncertainty as to which foot posture measures are the most valid in terms of predicting kinematics of the foot. The aim of this study was to investigate the associations of clinical measures of static foot posture and mobility with ...
