Foot pressure distribution during walking in young and old adults
BACKGROUND Measurement of foot pressure distribution (FPD) is clinically useful for evaluation of foot and gait pathologies. The effects of healthy aging on FPD during walking are not well known. This study evaluated FPD during normal walking in healthy young and elderly subjects. METHODS We studied 9 young (30 +/- 5.2 years), and 6 elderly subjects (68.7 +/- 4.8 years). FPD was measured duri...
متن کاملObjectively measured physical activity and sedentary-time are associated with arterial stiffness in Brazilian young adults
OBJECTIVE To examine the associations between objectively measured physical activity and sedentary time with pulse wave velocity (PWV) in Brazilian young adults. METHODS Cross-sectional analysis with participants of the 1982 Pelotas (Brazil) Birth Cohort who were followed-up from birth to 30 years of age. Overall physical activity (PA) assessed as the average acceleration (mg), time spent in ...
متن کاملIdiopathic toe-walking in children, adolescents and young adults: a matter of local or generalised stiffness?
BACKGROUND Idiopathic Toe Walking (ITW) is present in children older than 3 years of age still walking on their toes without signs of neurological, orthopaedic or psychiatric diseases. ITW has been estimated to occur in 7% to 24% of the childhood population. To study associations between Idiopathic Toe Walking (ITW) and decrease in range of joint motion of the ankle joint. To study associations...
متن کاملLeg and Joint Stiffness in Children with Spastic Diplegic Cerebral Palsy during Level Walking
Individual joint deviations are often identified in the analysis of cerebral palsy (CP) gait. However, knowledge is limited as to how these deviations affect the control of the locomotor system as a whole when striving to meet the demands of walking. The current study aimed to bridge the gap by describing the control of the locomotor system in children with diplegic CP in terms of their leg sti...
متن کاملCompensatory strategies during normal walking in response to muscle weakness and increased hip joint stiffness.
Compared to young adults, older adults exhibit a slower walking speed, smaller step length, shorter swing phase time and decreased range of motion in their lower extremity joints. The underlying mechanisms causing these gait adaptations is not well understood, with various musculoskeletal parameters being put forth as contributing factors, including increased joint stiffness and decreased isome...
