Relationship Between Plantar Tissue Hardness and Plantar Pressure Distributions in People With Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2022
Objective: People with diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) are usually accompanied with increased plantar pressure. Such high plantar loading during daily activities may cause changes in the biomechanical properties of plantar soft tissue, whose ...

Association of Obesity and Plantar Fasciitis in Patients With Plantar Heel Spurs

open access: yesFoot & Ankle Orthopaedics, 2023
Background: Although its pathophysiology is not clear, the presence of a plantar heel spur has been considered a cause of heel pain in plantar fasciitis. This study investigated demographic and radiographic differences between a plantar fasciitis patient

The effects of a custom foot orthosis on dynamic plantar pressure in patients with chronic plantar fasciitis: A randomized controlled trial

open access: yes, 2023
Plantar fasciitis is one of the most common causes of heel pain. The plantar fascia supports the longitudinal arch and absorbs ground reaction forces during the static and dynamic phase(s) of weight-bearing.

Postural Changes During Exteroceptive Thin Plantar Stimulation: The Effect of Prolonged Use and Different Plantar Localizations

open access: yesFrontiers in Systems Neuroscience, 2019
Somatosensory information arising from the foot has an important role in posture as well as visual and vestibular cues. Our hypothesis is that the effects of prolonged stimulation are greater than those of short stimulation and that varying the plantar ...

An Investigation of Regional Plantar Soft Tissue Hardness and Its Potential Correlation with Plantar Pressure Distribution in Healthy Adults

open access: yesApplied Bionics and Biomechanics, 2021
Background. The plantar soft tissue plays a critical role in absorbing shocks and attenuating excessive stresses during walking. Plantar soft tissue property and plantar pressure are critical information for footwear design and clinical assessment.

Plantar pressure image and 3D gait phase image comparison between older adults and adults [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Although gait disorders during the loading phase of gait are serious concerns associated with increasing age, relatively few studies have investigated gait characteristics in healthy older adult subjects and the change in their gait parameters compared ...

The Influence of Heel Height on Strain Variation of Plantar Fascia During High Heel Shoes Walking-Combined Musculoskeletal Modeling and Finite Element Analysis

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2021
The therapeutic benefit of high heel shoes (HHS) for plantar fasciitis treatment is controversial. It has been suggested that plantar fascia strain can be decreased by heel elevation of shoes which helps in body weight redistribution throughout the ...

Anatomical features of plantar fasciitis in various age cohorts: Based on magnetic resonance imaging

open access: yesJournal of Orthopaedic Surgery, 2023
Background Due to the lack of further studies on the influence of age factors on plantar fasciitis, this study evaluates the characteristic observation points of magnetic resonance imaging in various age cohorts of patients with plantar fasciitis to help
