“…Pinto et al described in their study an increase of pelvic anteversion by a consequent bilateral or unilateral calcaneal eversion (36). Khamis and Yizhar stated in 2007 that the pelvic alignment is influenced by foot alignment, irrespective of plane of motion (37). Interestingly, in our study the greatest pelvic changes were found when the lateral margin of the foot was increased.…”

“…A possible explanation for the changes of the pelvic position is that by the increase of the lateral margin of the foot the calcaneus averts, so that the talus is forced to slide medially and inferiorly (38,39). This movement may lead to an internal rotation of the shank, which is associated with a rotation of the thigh, but in lesser amplitude (37,40). An internal rotation of the femoral head increases the pressure on the posterior portion of the acetabulum, which finally can lead to a tilt of the pelvis (36).…”

Objective. The management of knee osteoarthritis includes the use of wedged shoe insoles to unload the affected knee compartment. Although the biomechanical effects of shoe insoles on the knee joint are known and described, only little is known about their influence on the pelvis and spine. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of different foot positions, such as how they could be achieved by shoe insoles, on pelvic position and spinal posture. Methods. A total of 51 test subjects were measured for this study. The different foot positions (inner and outer margin increase, positive and negative heel height) were simulated with a specially designed stand platform. A rasterstereographic device was used to measure the immediate effects of the simulated foot positions on the pelvic position and spinal posture. Results. Positive and negative heel heights as well as an increase of the outer margin of the platform led to significant changes of the pelvic tilt. The pelvic torsion also changed significantly during positive heel height changes of 10 and 15 mm and increases of the outer margin of the foot. No significant changes were found between foot position and spinal parameters. Conclusion. The results of our study support the existence of a kinematic chain, where changes of foot position also led to significant alterations of the pelvic position. Whether these changes could lead to long-term pathologic alterations still needs to be evaluated. However, in our setting, no correlation between foot position and spinal posture changes was found.

“…To investigate the effect of the foot hyper-pronation on the pelvis and the lower limb alignment in standing, a study was conducted on 35 healthy subjects, in four different ways: feet flat on the floor and on wedges angled at 10°, 15°, and 20°, with hyper-pronation. It was found that the alignment of the foot has a great effect on the alignment of the lower extremity and the pelvic bone 23 …”

“…The heels touch the ground after the forefoot 25) . Further, as the medial longitudinal arch absorbs shock and disperses physical weight during droplanding, flatfoot refers to a condition in which this arch is collapsed 26) . Brizuela et al 27) reported that a higher impact force is generated when drop-landing is performed with middle part of the foot when compared with drop-landing performed with the forefoot or hindfoot.…”

Abstract.[Purpose] The purpose of this study was to analyze lower limb angles and the loading rate during the drop-landing motion of a normal foot and flatfoot and ultimately to offer basic data for flatfoot exercise therapy.[Subjects] For this study, 18 adults from Cheonan with no musculoskeletal lesions were collected as a sample. The sample was divided into normal foot (n=9) and flatfoot (n=9) groups. Each group performed a drop-landing motion on a force plate with markers attached to the anterior superior iliac spine, the greater trochanter of the hip, the lateral epicondyle of the knee, the lateral malleolus, and the fifth metatarsal head. The motion was measured in 3D. The data for the angle of the hip joint, knee joint, and ankle joint during the drop-landing motion and the loading rate and maximum vertical reaction force at the force plate were measured.[Results] There were significant differences in the maximum vertical reaction force and loading rate during the drop-landing motion between the normal foot and flatfoot. There was a significant difference in the right ankle joint in terms of the variation in the lower limb angles.[Conclusion] It was difficult for the flatfoot to disperse the loading rate during the drop-landing motion, and it showed an increase in the lower limb bending angle. It was considered that proper pose control for the absorption of loads and strengthening of the lower limb were definitely needed for a flatfoot.
