Virtually optimized insoles for offloading the diabetic foot: a randomized crossover study [PDF]
, 2017 Integration of objective biomechanical measures of foot function into the design process for insoles has been shown to provide enhanced plantar tissue protection for individuals at-risk of plantar ulceration.

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

Predictors of barefoot plantar pressure during walking in patients with diabetes, peripheral neuropathy and a history of ulceration [PDF]
, 2015 OBJECTIVE:Elevated dynamic plantar foot pressures significantly increase the risk of foot ulceration in diabetes mellitus. The aim was to determine which factors predict plantar pressures in a population of diabetic patients who are at high-risk of foot ...

Venous occlusion plethysmography vs. Doppler ultrasound in the assessment of leg blood flow kinetics during different intensities of calf exercise [PDF]
, 2017 PurposeIt has recently been shown that venous occlusion plethysmography (VOP) can successfully assess the rate of increase in leg blood flow (LBF) (LBF kinetics) responses during calf exercise, but there is lack of data supporting its validity ...

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