Influence of Different Hardness Custom Foot Insoles in the Electromyography Activity Patterns of the Thigh and Hip Muscles during Motorcycling Sport: A Crossover Study
(MDPI AG, 2020-03)
[Abstract] Nowadays, the use of insoles in sport practice have been recognized to decrease the foot and lower limb injury patterns. The aim of this study was to analyse the effect of four types of hardness insoles (HI) in ...
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]. ...
Impact of Asthma on Plantar Pressures in a Sample of Adult Patients: A Case-Control Study
(MDPI, 2021-11)
[Abstract] Based on the high prevalence of asthma in the population, and its relationship with various musculoskeletal and postural disorders, the aim of this study was to evaluate the plantar pressures in asthmatic patients ...
Kinesiophobia Levels in Patients with Parkinson’s Disease: A Case-Control Investigation
(MDPI, 2021-04-30)
[Abstract]
Background: Kinesiophobia can be an obstacle to physical and motor activity in patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD). PD affects patients’ independence in carrying out daily activities. It also impacts a ...
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, ...
A 120-second stretch improves postural control and plantar pressure: quasi-experimental study
(Associação Paulista de Medicina - APM, 2022-05)
[Abstract] BACKGROUND:
There are no studies on long-term bilateral calf stretching in relation to balance and plantar pressure.
OBJECTIVES:
To demonstrate that there is better control of posture and pressures after ...
An Automated Blood Pressure Display for Self-Measurement in Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease (iHealth Track): Device Validation Study
(JMIR Publications, 2020-04)
[Abstract] Background: Hypertension is a global public health issue and is closely related to chronic kidney disorder (CKD). In people with CKD, strict monitoring of blood pressure is an important part of therapy.
Objective: ...
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 ...
