Walking on Toes

open access: yesClinical Orthopaedics and Trauma Care, 2022
The results of scientists from the University of Milan allowed us to take a fresh look at the basics of the physiology of the brain and nervous system. They found that neurological health largely depends on nerve impulses from the muscles of the legs to the brain.

The rise of the longitudinal arch when sitting, standing, and walking: Contributions of the windlass mechanism.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2021
The original windlass mechanism describes a one-to-one coupling between metatarsal joint dorsiflexion and medial longitudinal arch rise. The description assumes a sufficiently stiff plantar aponeurosis and absence of foot muscle activity. However, recent

Dense & Attention Convolutional Neural Networks for Toe Walking Recognition

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Neural Systems and Rehabilitation Engineering, 2023
Idiopathic toe walking (ITW) is a gait disorder where children’s initial contacts show limited or no heel touch during the gait cycle. Toe walking can lead to poor balance, increased risk of falling or tripping, leg pain, and stunted growth in ...

Correlation between toe brachial index and walking ability in peripheral arterial disease with type 2 diabetes mellitus

open access: yesBulletin of Faculty of Physical Therapy, 2023
Background The primary symptom of peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is intermittent claudication and the most common non-invasive diagnostic method is ankle brachial index.

Toe walking: new perspectives

open access: yes, 2000
To explore the hypothesis that toe-walking offers certain advantages for people with upper motor neuron related impairments, the authors performed biomechanical comparisons of toe- vs. heel-toe walking in non-disabled subjects.

Analysis of foot kinematics during toe walking in able-bodied individuals using the Oxford Foot Model

open access: yes, 2021
Various neurological and musculoskeletal disorders can induce pathologic toe walking and lead to changes in foot kinematics. In this study, we analyzed the differences in foot kinematics between toe walking and heel-toe walking (HW) in able-bodied ...

The Phenomenon of Toe Walking in Children, Disease or Habit: A Case Report [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
Background: Some children experience abnormalities in the way they walk, such as toe walking in the form of "bilateral toeing out" or "bilateral tip toe." Bilateral toe walking, also known as “bilateral toeing out,” is a condition in which both of a ...

A Return to Normality: A Descriptive Qualitative Interview Study Exploring the Patient Experience of Gout Flare Resolution

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Although the definition of a gout flare is well established, the state of gout flare resolution has not yet been defined. This study aimed to explore patients’ experiences and perceptions of gout flare resolution. Methods Semistructured interviews were conducted with 24 people with gout, guided by open‐ended questions exploring their ...

Multiplanar kinematic deviations in idiopathic toe walking: A comparison with voluntary toe walking gait [PDF]

open access: yes
Introduction: Idiopathic toe walking (ITW) refers to persistent toe walking beyond the age of three with no known neuromuscular causes. While ITW is primarily characterised by excessive ankle plantarflexion, multiplanar lower limb and segmental foot ...
