The Grading of Hallux Valgus
Tập 91 Số 2 - Trang 74-78 - 2001
This article describes a new, noninvasive method of assessing the severity of
hallux valgus deformity by means of a set of standardized photographs. Six
podiatrists were independently asked to grade the level of deformity of 13
subjects (26 feet) on a scale of 1 (no deformity) to 4 (severe deformity). The
reliability of the four-point scale for the severity of hallux valgus was
investigated by mea...
Navicular drop as a composite measure of excessive pronation
Tập 83 Số 4 - Trang 198-202 - 1993
The measure of navicular drop has been used as an indicator of pronation at the
foot. It is defined as the distance the navicular tuberosity moves in standing,
as the subtalar joint is allowed to move from its neutral position to a relaxed
position. The purposes of this study were to test the reliability of a method to
measure navicular drop and to assess the relationships among measures of
forefo...
Plantar Fasciitis—A Comparison of Treatment with Intralesional Steroids versus Platelet-Rich Plasma
Tập 107 Số 6 - Trang 490-496 - 2017
Background:Many treatment options for plantar fasciitis currently exist, some
with great success in pain relief. The objective of our study was to compare the
use of intralesional steroids with platelet-rich plasma (PRP), using pain scales
and functional evaluation, in patients with plantar fasciitis who did not
respond to conservative treatment.Methods:A controlled, randomized, blinded
clinical a...
Dynamic Changes in Matrix Metalloproteinase 9 and Tissue Inhibitor of Metalloproteinase 1 Levels During Wound Healing in Diabetic Rats
Tập 99 Số 6 - Trang 489-496 - 2009
Background: We investigated the mechanism of delayed would healing caused by
diabetes and measured the dynamic changes in matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP-9)
and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase 1 (TIMP-1) levels. We noted
differences in the ratio of MMP-9 to TIMP-1 in the wounds of diabetic and
nondiabetic rats.Methods: Forty-two Sprague-Dawley rats weighing 250 g were
randomly assigned to ei...
Definitions of Hammer Toe and Claw Toe
Tập 99 Số 3 - Trang 194-197 - 2009
Background: Lesser toe surgery is among the most conducted interventions in
general orthopedic practice. However, the definitions of hammer toe and claw toe
are not uniform. The objective of this literature study is to propose clear
definitions for these deformities to establish unambiguous communication.
Methods: A literature search was performed in the PubMed database (May 2006). Of
81 eligible ...
Foot Biomechanics in Patients with Diabetes Mellitus
Tập 101 Số 3 - Trang 208-214 - 2011
Background:We sought to identify the biomechanical characteristics of the feet
of patients with diabetes mellitus and the interrelationship with diabetic
neuropathy by determining the range of joint mobility and the presence and
locations of calluses and foot deformities.Methods:This observational
comparative study involved 281 patients with diabetes mellitus who underwent
neurologic and vascular ...
Biomechanical Risk Factors Associated with Neuropathic Ulceration of the Hallux in People with Diabetes Mellitus
Tập 96 Số 3 - Trang 189-197 - 2006
In this study of people with diabetes mellitus and peripheral neuropathy, it was
found that the feet of patients with a history of hallux ulceration were more
pronated and less able to complete a single-leg heel rise compared with the feet
of patients with a history of ulceration elsewhere on the foot. The range of
active first metatarsophalangeal joint dorsiflexion was found to be
significantly l...
A Train-the-Trainer Model for Integrating Evidence-Based Medicine Training into Podiatric Medical Education
Tập 95 Số 5 - Trang 497-504 - 2005
This article presents the development, implementation, and evaluation of a
national evidence-based medicine faculty-development program for podiatric
medical educators. Ten faculty members representing six accredited colleges of
podiatric medicine, one podiatric medical residency program, and a Veterans
Affairs podiatry service participated in a 2-day workshop, which included
facilitated discussio...
Cadence, Age, and Weight as Determinants of Forefoot Plantar Pressures Using the Biofoot In-shoe System
Tập 98 Số 4 - Trang 302-310 - 2008
Background: We evaluated normal plantar pressures and studied the effect of
weight, cadence, and age on forefoot plantar pressures in healthy subjects by
using the Biofoot (Instituto de Biomecánica de Valencia, Valencia, Spain)
in-shoe measurement system. Methods: The feet of 45 healthy subjects with no
evident foot or lower-limb diseases were measured with the Biofoot in-shoe
system. The forefoo...
Total contact casting
Tập 85 Số 3 - Trang 172-176 - 1995
The treatment of diabetic foot ulcerations has been a difficult task for
podiatrists. Numerous methods and materials have been used in an attempt to
alleviate this frustrating and complex treatment dilemma. However, there is one
treatment method that has been used successfully for decades on plantar
ulcerations of the neuropathic foot. Total contact casting has been an easily
applicable and effect...
