Pedabarography May Play a Role in Foot Plantar Scanning in Acromegaly

open access: yesInternational Journal of Clinical Practice, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022
Aims. Acromegaly is associated with symptoms in many organs, including the heart, colon, skin, bones, and many joints. Patients with long‐term treatment or biochemical control still suffer from acromegaly arthropathy (AA). Primarily, the weight‐bearing joints of the lower extremity are affected and at last deformation emerges.

Static Foot Pressure and Percentage Contact Area of the Foot as an Assessment Tool for the Success of Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction: A Cross-sectional Study [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Anatomy Radiology and Surgery, 2023
Introduction: Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) plays a vital role in gait balancing and lower limb kinematics. Any injury to the ACL leads to gait imbalance and alterations in foot pressure distribution.

The effect of backpack load on intersegmental motions of the foot and plantar pressure in individuals with mild flatfoot

open access: yesJournal of Foot and Ankle Research, Volume 15, Issue 1, 2022., 2022
Abstract Background The feet play an essential role in shock absorption, and foot posture is closely related to gait. The compensatory mechanism under heavy‐load conditions in individuals with mild flatfoot is poorly understood. In the authors' country, individuals with mild flatfoot are drafted as active‐duty soldiers and participate in military ...

Changes of static and dynamic spine alignment in patients with severe haemophilia

open access: yesHaemophilia, Volume 27, Issue 6, Page e721-e729, November 2021., 2021
Abstract Introduction Haemophilic arthropathy results in a restricted range of motion and pain that often affects gait. The effect of these gait changes on spinal posture has not been studied. Aim To evaluate whether the altered joint situation in patients with haemophilia (PwH) leads to compensatory mechanisms evident in the trunk and spine ...

Investigation of Impact of Walking Speed on Forces Acting on a Foot–Ground Unit

open access: yesSensors, 2022
Static and dynamic methods can be used to assess the way a foot is loaded. The research question is how the pressure on the feet would vary depending on walking/running speed. This study involved 20 healthy volunteers.

Plantar Pressure Variability and Asymmetry in Elderly Performing 60-Minute Treadmill Brisk-Walking: Paving the Way towards Fatigue-Induced Instability Assessment Using Wearable In-Shoe Pressure Sensors

open access: yesSensors, 2021
Evaluation of potential fatigue for the elderly could minimize their risk of injury and thus encourage them to do more physical exercises. Fatigue-related gait instability was often assessed by the changes of joint kinematics, whilst planar pressure ...

Prophylaxis of Pain and Fractures within Feet in the Course of Osteoporosis: The Issue of Diagnosing

open access: yesPain Research and Management, Volume 2020, Issue 1, 2020., 2020
Background. Considering the enormous risk of fractures in the course of osteoporosis in the area of the feet, an important aspect of prophylaxis is periodic and, in special cases, ongoing monitoring of defects and deformations as well as pressure distribution.

Meta‐Analysis of Integrated Therapeutic Methods in Noninvasive Lower Back Pain Therapy (LBP): The Role of Interdisciplinary Functional Diagnostics

open access: yesPain Research and Management, Volume 2020, Issue 1, 2020., 2020
Introduction. Lower back pain (LBP) is almost a problem of civilizations. Quite often, it is a consequence of many years of disturbed distribution of tension within the human body caused by local conditions (injuries, hernias, stenoses, spondylolisthesis, cancer, etc.), global factors (postural defects, structural integration disorders, lifestyle, type
