Design of 3D printed pressure-reducing insoles based on changes in parameters of lattice structure

open access: yesAdvances in Mechanical Engineering, 2023
Uneven distribution of pressure on the bottom of the foot or excessive local pressure shall cause discomfort. And when it gets severe, this pressure would even damage the health of the human foot, especially for people like the elderly, diabetic patients

Pressure of Fused Foot

open access: yesOrthopedics & Traumatology, 1954
Author examined the human foot pressure in 51 cases of fused feet by means of oppress spur used dental modelling.The feet examined were operated by usual methods of arthrodesis. The preoperative deformities were classified into talipes calcaneus (7 cases), equinus (15 cases), varus (15 cases), planovalgus (one case) and flail feet (13 cases).By this ...

Natural Killer Cells in Paediatric Soft Tissue Sarcomas: A Systematic Review

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Paediatric soft tissue sarcomas (pSTS) are a rare and heterogeneous group of malignant tumours arising in tissues of mesenchymal origin. The role of natural killer (NK) cells in pSTS remains poorly understood, with evidence fragmented across small preclinical studies and early‐phase clinical trials.

Effect of the shoe on plantar foot pressures [PDF]

open access: yesActa Orthopaedica Scandinavica, 1995
The bare foot plantar pressures were compared to in-shoe pressure measurements in 11 normal male volunteers using the EMED system. Shoes diminished pressures and forces in most areas under the foot except the medial forefoot. The hallux showed less force, a smaller contact area and a reduced contact time. Therefore a shoe can interfere with the toe-off
