Eyes-Open Versus Eyes-Closed Somatosensory Motor Balance in Professional Soccer Players With Chronic Ankle Instability: A Case-Control Study
(SAGE, 2021-03)
[Abstract] Background:
Chronic ankle instability (CAI) is a condition defined by certain structural and functional deficits in the ankle joint complex after acute ankle injury. These deficits include pathological joint ...
The Reliability, Validity, and Sensitivity of the Edmonton Frail Scale (EFS) in Older Adults With Foot Disorders
(Impact Journals, 2020-12)
[Abstract] The Edmonton Frail Scale (EFS) is an index employed to measure alterations related to frailty. The main objective in this research was to develop the EFS short-form (EFS-SF) and to evaluate its validity, ...
Slow velocity of the center of pressure and high heel pressures may increase the risk of Sever’s disease: a case-control study
(BMC, 2018-11)
[Abstract] Abstract
Background: This study determined if the body mass index, dynamic plantar-pressures, plantar surface contactarea, velocity of the centre of pressure (COP), gastrocnemius equinus, and gastrocnemius ...
Repeatability and Reliability of the Rheumatoid Arthritis Foot Disease Activity Index in Spanish Patients: A Transcultural Adaptation
(MDPI, 2022)
[Abstract] Background: The Rheumatoid Arthritis Foot Disease Activity Index (RADAI-F5) questionnaire, based on five questions, is used to assess the severity of rheumatoid arthritis disease in the foot. Nowadays, RADAI-F5 ...
Acute Effects of Intermittent Versus Continuous Bilateral Ankle Plantar Flexor Static Stretching on Postural Sway and Plantar Pressures: A Randomized Clinical Trial
(MDPI, 2019-01)
[Abstract] Postural balance and fall efficacy (self-perceived confidence in performing daily physical activities) have been found to be risk factors associated with falls in older adults. Stretching is one intervention ...
The Effect of Simulated Leg-Length Discrepancy on the Dynamic Parameters of the Feet during Gait—Cross-Sectional Research
(MDPI, 2021-07)
[Abstract] Background: The effect of Leg-Length Discrepancy (LLD) on dynamic gait parameters has been extensively discussed. Podobarography is the study of foot-to-ground pressure distribution. It has been used to test ...
Intra and Intersession Repeatability and Reliability of Dynamic Parameters in Pressure Platform Assessments on Subjects With Simulated Leg Length Discrepancy. A Cross-Sectional Research
(Associação Paulista de Medicina, 2021-08)
[Abstract] BACKGROUND:
Leg length discrepancy (LLD) may play a key role in exercise biomechanics. Although the Podoprint platform has been used in dynamic pressure studies, there are no data regarding the reliability and ...
Effectiveness of Custom Foot Insoles to Decrease Plantar Pressure: A Cross-over Randomized Trial Study
(MDPI, 2022-03)
[Abstract] Motorsport requires a high physical demand in the development of different body
positions. To obtain the maximum efficiency in elite and amateur motorcycling depends
on a good biomechanical performance [1,2]. ...
Influence of an Upper Limb Isometric Task in Perceived and Performance Fatigability of Elderly Subjects: A Quasi-Experimental Study
(MDPI, 2022-08)
[Abstract] Isometric activity can be used as a strategy to improve health, fitness, and functional performance in the elderly population, but differences in fatigability may occur. This study aimed to understand fatigability ...
Effects of Myofascial Induction Therapy on Ankle Range of Motion and Pressure Pain Threshold in Trigger Points of the Gastrocnemius—A Clinical Trial
(MDPI, 2023-09-21)
[Abstract] Background: The myofascial induction technique (MIT) has been shown to increase
shoulder range of motion (ROM) in breast cancer survivors and decrease pain pressure threshold
over the radial nerve in patients ...
