Energetics of the intrinsic foot muscles in plantar fasciitis
Introduction Intrinsic foot muscles and the plantar fascia provide mechanical support for the medial longitudinal arch in gait [1]. In an injury to the plantar fascia (i.e. plantar fasciitis), there may be an increase in load on the intrinsic foot muscles resulting in increased metabolic demand. Phosphorus magnetic resonance spectroscopy (31P MRS) has shown that the ratio of inorganic phosphate...
متن کاملBiomechanical Function of the Plantar Intrinsic Foot Muscles
1,2 Luke Kelly, 2 Glen Lichtwark, 1 Rodney Whiteley, 1 Sebastien Racinais and Andrew Cresswell ASPETAR, Qatar Orthopaedic and Sports Medicine Hospital, Doha, Qatar Centre for Sensorimotor Neuroscience, School of Human Movement Studies, The University of Queensland, Australia INTRODUCTION The human foot is a flexible multi-segment structure, capable of conforming to variations in load and surfac...
متن کاملAn ankle-foot orthosis powered by artificial pneumatic muscles.
We developed a pneumatically powered orthosis for the human ankle joint. The orthosis consisted of a carbon fiber shell, hinge joint, and two artificial pneumatic muscles. One artificial pneumatic muscle provided plantar flexion torque and the second one provided dorsiflexion torque. Computer software adjusted air pressure in each artificial muscle independently so that artificial muscle force ...
متن کاملAtrophy of foot muscles: a measure of diabetic neuropathy.
OBJECTIVE Diabetic neuropathy is a length-dependent process that leads to reduced muscle strength and atrophy of leg muscles in some patients. We hypothesized that intrinsic foot muscles are atrophied in diabetic neuropathy and that the degree of atrophy is a measure of motor dysfunction closely related to the neuropathic process. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Consecutive cross-sectional magnet...
متن کاملThe role of selected extrinsic foot muscles during running.
OBJECTIVE To determine the kinematic, kinetic and EMG responses to perturbations of the foot by running in varus, neutral, and valgus-wedged shoes. DESIGN Within-subjects study comparing kinematics, kinetics and EMG while running in three different shoe conditions. BACKGROUND Excessive pronation has been cited as a key contributor to many types of running injuries. However, the roles of the...
