Are Pedobarographic and Gait Analyses Useful Tools to Evaluate Outcomes of Anterograde Calcaneo-Stop Procedure in Pediatric Symptomatic Flexible Flatfoot?

Children, 2022
Background: Flexible flatfoot is a frequent condition in childhood that needs to be treated when symptomatic. The aim of this study was to analyze pedobarographic and gait outcomes of patients with painful flexible flatfoot who underwent the anterograde ...

Influence of the transverse tarsal arch on radiological components of progressive collapsing foot deformity

Journal of Orthopaedic Research, Volume 42, Issue 12, Page 2752-2760, December 2024.
Abstract The importance of the transverse tarsal arch (TTA) has recently been extensively reevaluated and has even been considered to play a greater role in foot stability than the medial longitudinal arch (MLA). However, the relevance of this observation in the context of common clinical foot disorders, such as progressive collapsing foot deformity ...

Shoe-Integrated, Force Sensor Design for Continuous Body Weight Monitoring

Sensors, 2020
Traditional pedobarography methods use direct force sensor placement in the shoe insole to record pressure patterns. One problem with such methods is that they tap only a few points on the flat sole under the foot and, therefore, do not account for the ...

Brace Effects on Spatiotemporal Gait Parameters from Pedobarography in Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis

Current Directions in Biomedical Engineering
Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) is a threedimensional deformation of the spine typically occuring in adolescents, mainly females. Untreated AIS can lead to the need for surgical intervention or to severe back problems later in life.

Improvement of modal matching image objects in dynamic pedobarography using optimization techniques

, 2004
The paper presents an approach for matching objects in dynamic pedobarography image sequences, based on finite element modeling and modal analysis. The determination of correspondences between objects nodes is here improved using optimization techniques ...

Facilitating the interpretation of pedobarography: the relative midfoot index as marker for pathologic gait in ankle osteoarthritic and contralateral feet [PDF]

, 2016
Background Pedobarography offers dynamic information about the foot, but the interpretation of its large data is challenging. In a prior study it was shown that attention can be restricted to pedobarographic midfoot load data.

The effect of hamstring /quadriceps muscle strength ratio on plantar pressure distribution - A pilot study

Turkish Journal of Kinesiology
The interaction between agonist and antagonist muscles, particularly the quadriceps and hamstrings, is critical in knee joint biomechanics, impacting its stability and functionality during movement.

Forefoot pathology in rheumatoid arthritis identified with ultrasound may not localise to areas of highest pressure: cohort observations at baseline and twelve months [PDF]

, 2011
BackgroundPlantar pressures are commonly used as clinical measures, especially to determine optimum foot orthotic design. In rheumatoid arthritis (RA) high plantar foot pressures have been linked to metatarsophalangeal (MTP) joint radiological erosion ...

A new perspective on forefoot biomechanics: the dual arch structure of the metatarsal transverse arch and the trimaran effect

Acta Orthopaedica et Traumatologica Turcica
Objective: The structure and function of the Metatarsal Transverse Arch (MTA) remain underexplored. It was hypothesized that, during the push-off phase of gait, the MTA does not form a single arch between the first and fifth metatarsals; rather, it ...
