Associations of region-specific foot pain and foot biomechanics: the framingham foot study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
BACKGROUND. Specific regions of the foot are responsible for the gait tasks of weight acceptance, single-limb support, and forward propulsion. With region foot pain, gait abnormalities may arise and affect the plantar pressure and force pattern utilized.

The impact of rheumatoid arthritis on foot function in the early stages of disease: a clinical case series [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
BACKGROUND Foot involvement occurs early in rheumatoid arthritis but the extent to which this impacts on the structure and function leading to impairment and foot related disability is unknown. The purpose of this study was to compare clinical disease

Laserlight visual cueing device for freezing of gait in Parkinson's disease: a case study of the biomechanics involved [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Background: Freezing of gait (FOG) is a serious gait disorder affecting up to two-thirds of people with Parkinson's disease (PD). Cueing has been explored as a method of generating motor execution using visual transverse lines on the floor.

An Efficient Gait Abnormality Detection Method Based on Classification

open access: yesJournal of Sensor and Actuator Networks, 2022
In the study of human mobility, gait analysis is a well-recognized assessment methodology. Despite its widespread use, doubts exist about its clinical utility, i.e., its potential to influence the diagnostic-therapeutic practice.

Analysis of Gait Changes Caused by Simulated Left Knee Disorder

open access: yesEAI Endorsed Transactions on Creative Technologies, 2016
In this research, we analyze the changes in gait when healthy subjects wear knee braces, which constrain the subject's motion, such as the elderly simulation kits. We aim to estimate leg disorders from image sequences of the subject's walking. Since gait

Spatial and Temporal Gait Characteristics in Patients Admitted to a Neuro-Rehabilitation Department with Age-Related White Matter Changes: A Gait Analysis and Clinical Study

open access: yesNeurology International, 2023
Background: Patients with age-related white matter changes (ARWMC) frequently present a gait disorder, depression and cognitive impairment. Our aims are to define which alterations in the gait parameters are associated with motor or neuro-psychological ...
