Five year mortality and direct costs of care for people with diabetic foot complications are comparable to cancer

David G. Armstrong, Mark Swerdlow, Alexandria A. Armstrong et al. · 1 Jan 2020

Normative values for the Foot Posture Index

Anthony C. Redmond, Yvonne Z Crane, Hylton B. Menz · 1 Jan 2008

The aims of this study were therefore to determine the prevalence, correlates and impact of foot pain in a population-based sample of people aged 18 years and over living in the northwest region of Adelaide, South Australia. METHODS: The North…

Foot posture influences the electromyographic activity of selected lower limb muscles during gait

BACKGROUND: Some studies have found that flat-arched foot posture is related to altered lower limb muscle function compared to normal- or high-arched feet. However, the results from these studies were based on highly selected populations such as those with rheumatoid arthritis. Therefore, the objective of this study was to compare lower limb muscle function of…

A protocol for classifying normal‐ and flat‐arched foot posture for research studies using clinical and radiographic measurements

George S. Murley, Hylton B. Menz, Karl B. Landorf · 1 Jan 2009

BACKGROUND: There are several clinical and radiological methods available to classify foot posture in research, however there is no clear strategy for selecting the most appropriate measurements. Therefore, the aim of this study was to develop a foot screening protocol to distinguish between participants with normal- and flat-arched feet who would then subsequently be recruited…
