The Role of Arch Compression and Metatarsophalangeal Joint Dynamics in Modulating Plantar Fascia Strain in Running. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2016
Elastic energy returned from passive-elastic structures of the lower limb is fundamental in lowering the mechanical demand on muscles during running. The purpose of this study was to investigate the two length-modulating mechanisms of the plantar fascia,

Vascular Supply to the Proximal Plantar Plate of Lesser Toe Metatarsophalangeal Joint is Primarily Supplied by the Attachment to the Metatarsal: A Nano-CT Microvasculature Study

Foot & Ankle Orthopaedics, 2022
Category: Lesser Toes Introduction/Purpose: Lesser toe metatarsophalangeal (MTP) instability is implicated in common forefoot pain and deformities. The plantar plate is a major stabilizing structure of the MTP joint with instability frequently occurring ...

Characterization of the structure, cells, and cellular mechanobiological response of human plantar fascia

Journal of Tissue Engineering, 2018
In this study, we report that human plantar fascia consists of two distinct tissues with differential structural properties. These tissues also contain stem/progenitor cells with differential biological properties.

Targeting CXCR2 in Nociceptive Sensory Neurons Offers Novel Therapeutic Potentials for Postoperative Pain

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Tissue incision induces CXCL5 release, which activates neuronal CXCR2 on incision‐innervating sensory neurons. Neuronal CXCR2 couples with TRPA1 to drive mechanical pain and engages p38 MAPK signaling to upregulate TRPV1 and promote heat pain. Targeted Cxcr2 knockdown relieves incisional pain while preserving CXCR2‐dependent neutrophil responses ...

Stretching and relaxing the plantar fascia may change plantar fascia thickness but not pressure pain thresholds: a cross-sectional study of patients with plantar fasciopathy

BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2020
Background Despite the established relevance of ultrasonography and assessment of pressure pain thresholds in patients with plantar fasciopathy, patient and probe positioning has been mostly ignored and are not necessarily reported in research.

Effect of Ultrasound-Guided Injection of Local Ozone or Platelet Rich Plasma Versus Corticosteroid in Plantar Fasciitis [PDF]

Al-Azhar International Medical Journal, 2020
ABSTRAC. Background : Plantar fasciitis or recently called plantar fasciopathy, generally observed with heel spurs because of the deposition of calcium, although the definite pathology is still unknown.
