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 ...
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: ...
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 ...
Flexor Digitorum Brevis Muscle Dry Needling Changes Surface and Plantar Pressures: A Pre-Post Study
(MDPI, 2021-01)
[Abstract] Background: The effects of the dry needling technique and pain reduction have been demonstrated in numerous quality studies. However, the mechanical effects of dry needling are largely unknown. Methods: A total ...
Dry needling of the flexor digitorum brevis muscle reduces postural control in standing: A pre-post stabilometric study
(Wiley, 2023-03-16)
[Abstract] There are studies that show the better balance after dry needling in lumbar pain.
However, the postural control effects after foot dry needling are unknown. Our
objective
was to check if dry needling reduces ...
The Effectiveness of Hard Insoles for Plantar Pressure in Cycling: A Crossover Study
(MDPI, 2023-07-08)
[Abstract] Background: Hard insoles have been proposed to decrease plantar pressure and prevent
foot pain and paresthesia due to repetitive loading. The aim of this research was to analyze the effect
of three different ...
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 ...
