Objectives: Genu Varum deformity is known as a factor disrupting gravity line and force patterns in lower limb and may make the individual more exposed to lower extremity injuries especially in repeated activities like running. The aim of this study was to investigate Ground Reaction Forces in subjects with and without genu varum deformity during running. Methods: Thirty active men were divide...

Objective: in normal walking, repetitive vertical ground reaction forces are tansformed on musculo-skeletal system. Magnitude of force during impact is major contributor to overuse injuries. Purpose of this study was the evaluate to effect of standard and beveled heel at orthopedic shoe on vertical ground reaction forces during walking in healthy subjects. Materials & Methods: 30 healthy adu...

Objective: The link between frequency content of gait ground reaction forces and hearing loss is not well understood. The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of hearing loss on gait ground reaction force frequency content. Methods: Thirty male children were equally divided into a healthy group and a group with hearing loss problems (Deaf group). Frequency content of ground r...

Background and Objectives: Gait asymmetry is a useful index that can provide an important role in clinical treatment. Since the link between asymmetry index of gait ground reaction force frequency content and hearing loss is not well evaluated, the aim of this study was to compare the asymmetry index of gait ground reaction force frequency spectrum in deaf and hearing male children of Hamedan c...

Objectives: The aim of this study was to assess the symmetry of ground reaction forces in patient with ACL rupture during vertical jump. Methods: Six men with ACLD (anterior cruciate ligament disease) participated in this study. Ground reaction forces components were assessed during Sargent jump by Kistler force plate. Data were analyzed running dependent Samples T-test and Repeated Measure in...

Introduction: Weightlifting is a sport that is performed in different weights. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the effect of different degrees of weight loss on the values of ground reaction force during the lift movement in elite weightlifters. Methodology: The current research was semi-experimental. The statistical sample of the research was selected using the available m...
