Mechanical loading and off-loading of the plantar surface of the diabetic foot

open access: yes, 2004
During weight-bearing activities, the feet are exposed to large forces, particularly when the activity is dynamic, such as walking. The pressure under the plantar surface during walking varies per foot area because of a number of factors related to the ...

Flatfoot vs Pronation: Structural and Functional Dissociation Between Foot Posture and Foot Physiology

open access: yesFoot & Ankle Orthopaedics
Background: In clinical practice, static foot posture is frequently interpreted as a proxy for foot structure and function. The Foot Posture Index–6 (FPI-6) is a descriptive tool, often used to infer the presence of flatfoot and abnormal dynamic loading.

The Impact of Race on Plantar Loading and Research Engagement

open access: yes, 2022
African Americans (AA) are twice as likely as White Americans (WA) to experience diabetes-related foot amputation due to foot ulcers. Foot ulcers are often caused by high plantar pressure, and several factors can impact plantar loading. Thus, there is a
