Transfer of plantar pressure from the medial to the central forefoot in patients with hallux valgus

BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2019
Background The aim of the study was to evaluate changes in plantar pressure distribution in feet affected by hallux valgus compared with their contralateral non-affected feet and with the feet of healthy control subjects. Methods Thirty-six patients with

Plantar fasciopathy: revisiting the risk factors [PDF]

, 2014
Background Plantar fasciopathy is the most common cause of acquired sub-calcaneal heel pain in adults. To-date, research of this condition has mainly focused on management rather than causal mechanisms.

Foot plantar pressure and centre of pressure trajectory differ between straight and turning steps in infants

Scientific Reports, 2023
Plantar pressure has been used to understand loading on infant feet as gait develops. Previous literature focused on straight walking, despite turning accounting for 25% of infant self-directed steps.

Prediction of peak pressure from clinical and radiological measurements in patients with diabetes

BMC Endocrine Disorders, 2008
Background Various structural and functional factors of foot function have been associated with high local plantar pressures. The therapist focuses on these features which are thought to be responsible for plantar ulceration in patients with diabetes ...

Changes in plantar load distribution in legally blind subjects.

PLoS ONE, 2021
We investigated the impact of visual impairment on balance control. We measured the center of pressure (COP) between the two feet and plantar surface pressures on each foot in 18 normal-sighted participants and compared their data with measures from 18 ...

Are old running shoes detrimental to your feet? A pedobarographic study

BMC Research Notes, 2011
Background Footwear characteristics have been implicated in fatigue and foot pain. The recommended time for changing running shoes is every 500 miles. The aim of our study was to assess and compare plantar peak pressures and pressure time integrals in ...
