Assessment of plantar pressure and balance in patients with diabet

open access: yesArchives of Medical Science, 2010
Patients with diabetes for more than 10 years may have an increase in peak plantar pressure, considerable postural oscillation, balance deficit, alterations in gait pattern and an increased risk of falls. The aim of the present study was to assess the correlation between plantar pressure distribution and balance in patients with diabetes using a ...

PLANTAR PRESSURES IN HEALTHY CHILDREN AND IN CHILDREN WITH MYELOMENINGOCELE [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery. British volume, 1973
1. It has been shown in fifty normal feet that the perpendicular static plantar pressures rise by about 35 per cent between the ages of five years and maturity. 2. It is very likely that similar increases in plantar pressures occur between two and five years of age. 3.

Residual effects of combined vibratory and plantar stimulation while seated influences plantar pressure and spatiotemporal gait measures in individuals with Parkinson’s disease exhibiting freezing of gait

open access: yesFrontiers in Aging Neuroscience
IntroductionCombined plantar pressure and vibratory stimulation has been shown to decrease freezing of gait (FOG) episodes and improve spatiotemporal gait parameters compared to single stimulation in Parkinson’s disease (PD) patients with FOG.
