Association of Planus Foot Posture and Pronated Foot Function With Foot Pain: The Framingham Foot Study

Foot posture, foot function and low back pain: the Framingham Foot Study

OBJECTIVE Abnormal foot posture and function have been proposed as possible risk factors for low back pain, but this has not been examined in detail. The objective of this study was to explore the associations of foot posture and foot function with low back pain in 1930 members of the Framingham Study (2002-05). METHODS Low back pain, aching or stiffness on most days was documented on a body ...

Foot Disorders, Foot Posture, and Foot Function: The Framingham Foot Study

INTRODUCTION Foot disorders are common among older adults and may lead to outcomes such as falls and functional limitation. However, the associations of foot posture and foot function to specific foot disorders at the population level remain poorly understood. The purpose of this study was to assess the relation between specific foot disorders, foot posture, and foot function. METHODS Partici...

The associations of leg lean mass with foot pain, posture and function in the Framingham foot study

BACKGROUND Foot disorders are common in older adults and associated with impaired lower extremity function. Reduced muscle mass may play a role in the etiology of foot disorders and consequent poor function. METHODS We examined the association of leg lean mass with foot pain, posture and function among 1,795 individuals (mean age 67 years) from the population-based Framingham Foot Study (2002...

Correction of the pronated foot.

The association between measures of static foot posture and foot mobility and foot kinematics during barefoot walking

Background Variations in foot posture are associated with common lower limb injuries. However, there is uncertainty as to which measure of foot posture is the most valid in terms of predicting 3-dimensional kinematics of the foot. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between measures of static foot posture or foot mobility and kinematic variables of the foot during barefoot ...
