Static and dynamic foot characteristics in children aged 1-13 years: A cross-sectional study

May 15, 2012

The aim of this study was to acquire static and dynamic foot geometry and loading in childhood, and to establish data for age groups of a population of 1–13 year old infants and children. A total of 10,382 children were recruited and 7788 children (48 percemt males and 52 percent females) were finally included into the data analysis. For static foot geometry foot length and foot width were quantified in a standing position.

The effect of a long-distance run on plantar pressure distribution during running

May 1, 2012

The purpose of this study was to assess plantar pressure alterations after long-distance running. Prior to and after a 20 km run, force distribution underneath the feet of 52 participants was registered using Footscan pressure plates while the participants ran shod at a constant self-selected pace.

The influence of heel height on lower extremity kinematics and leg muscle activity during gait in young and middle-aged women

April 24, 2012

The aim of this study was to evaluate the changes in electromyographic activity of the lower limb muscles, and hip, knee and ankle kinematics during gait while wearing low- (4-cm) and high-heeled (10 cm) shoes in 31 young and 15 middle-aged adult women. We observed an increase in knee flexion and decrease in ankle eversion associated with elevated heel heights suggesting that compensatory mechanisms attenuating ground reaction forces may be compromised during gait with higher-heeled shoes.
