Evaluation of the accuracy of shoe fitting in older people using three‐dimensional foot scanning
Journal of Foot and Ankle Research, 2014 Background Ill‐fitting footwear is a common problem in older people. The objective of this study was to determine the accuracy of shoe fitting in older people by comparing the dimensions of allocated shoes to foot dimensions obtained with a three ...

Diabetic Gait Is Not Just Slow Gait: Gait Compensations in Diabetic Neuropathy [PDF]
Journal of Diabetes Research, 2019 Background. Neuropathic complications from diabetes mellitus affect multiple nerve types and may manifest in gait. However, gait compensations are still poorly understood, as narrow analyses and lack of speed controls have contributed to conflicting or equivocal results. Purpose.

Model-based 3D gait biometrics
, 2011 There have as yet been few gait biometrics approaches which use temporal 3D data. Clearly, 3D gait data conveys more information than 2D data and it is also the natural representation of human gait perceived by human.

Journal of Neurology, Neurosurgery & Psychiatry, 2001 This chapter deals with the neuronal mechanisms underlying impaired gait. The aim is, first, a better understanding of the underlying pathophysiology and, second, the selection of an adequate treatment. One of the first symptoms of a lesion within the central motor system perceived by patients is a movement disorder, which is most characteristic during
