Do plantar calcaneal spurs make the plantar aponeurosis enthesis stronger? A biomechanical analysis

Journal of Anatomy, Volume 248, Issue 4, Page 591-597, April 2026.
Novel testing set up for determining enthesial avulsion parameters. Donor calcanei were dissected to isolate the central band of the plantar fascia, and mounted in a custom 3D‐printed rig (Fig A, B, C) for uniaxial tensile testing of the plantar fascia enthesis (Fig D). This study demonstrated no significant differences in the avulsion parameters, Fmax

Comparison between Ankle Stretching and Self Massage for Plantar Fascia Treatments on Male and Female Posture Balance

Jurnal Pendidikan Jasmani dan Olahraga, 2021
When performing physical activity and sports, men and women are at risk of the plantar fascia that could decrease foot functions when walking, running, and jumping. Thus it requires accurate prediction results in handling it.

Predictive Behavior of a Computational Foot/Ankle Model through Artificial Neural Networks [PDF]

, 2017
Computational models are useful tools to study the biomechanics of human joints. Their predictive performance is heavily dependent on bony anatomy and soft tissue properties.

Early Radial Extracorporeal Shockwave Stimulation on Proximal Tibial Circular Osteotomy Site Enhanced Heterotopic Skin Wound Healing via Small Extracellular Vesicles

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 16, 18 March 2026.
A schematic diagram of the mechanism where small extracellular vesicles mediate the enhancement of heterotopic wound healing by radial extracorporeal shockwave stimulation at a proximal tibial osteotomy site. ABSTRACT Wound healing represents a complex biological process necessitating innovative therapeutic approaches, particularly for chronic wounds ...

Current approaches to surgical treatment of plantar fasciitis (literature review) [PDF]

Гений oртопедии, 2018
There is no general consensus among experts regarding terminology, pathogenesis and treatment of heel spurs. Surgical treatment of heel spur is considered for patients who have not responded adequately after 6-12 months of conservative therapy. Although

Fascia, Eh. What Is It? What Is It Good for?

Clinical Anatomy, Volume 39, Issue 2, Page 262-272, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Opinions on the meaning of the term fascia appear to have been diverging for the past quarter century. In 1998, the definition of fascia in the international standard anatomical nomenclature was narrowed by removing the term fascia superficialis.

Ultrasound and MRI Are Not Interchangeable for Measuring Muscle Cross‐Sectional Area: Analysis of Reliability and Validity in 10 Lower Limb Muscles Considering Sex Differences

European Journal of Sport Science, Volume 26, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Ultrasound‐based anatomical cross‐sectional area (US‐ACSA) measurement using extended‐field‐of‐view (EFOV) imaging offers a practical alternative to magnetic resonance imaging (MRI‐ASCA) measurements. Although its reliability and validity have previously been assessed, previous studies have focused only on a single or limited number of muscles

Therapeutic Potential of Photobiomodulation in Early Recovery After Experimental Spinal Cord Injury in Rats: Histological and Biomechanical Analysis

Journal of Biophotonics, Volume 19, Issue 3, March 2026.
Spinal cord injuries (SCI) cause severe motor and sensory deficits, with limited treatment options. This study demonstrates that early application of photobiomodulation (PBM) can protect spinal cord tissue and accelerate functional recovery in a preclinical model, which integrates biomechanical analysis with histomorphological characteristics of the ...

Efficacy and Safety of Dextrose Prolotherapy Versus Corticosteroid Injections in Plantar Fasciitis: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

Journal of Foot and Ankle Research, Volume 19, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Plantar fasciitis (PF) is a common cause of heel pain that affects the health‐related quality of life of many individuals and has various treatment options. Two effective interventions are corticosteroid (CS) injections and dextrose prolotherapy (DP).
