Pressure Under the Forefoot in Rheumatoid Arthritis

Plantar pressures in diabetes with no known neuropathy (无神经病变的糖尿病患者的足底压力)

“…It has been established that accurate information on foot biomechanics can be obtained using pressure analysis, but with ‘mixed’ opinions. Some investigators found that the heel experiences approximately 2.6‐fold higher heel pressure against forefoot pressures in symptom‐free feet during bipedal standing, whereas others have demonstrated conflicting results showing that the heel has a similar load to the forefoot . In the present study, no significant differences were found in pressures at different zones between diabetic and non‐diabetic subjects.…”

Plantar Pressure Distribution Among Asymptomatic Individuals

“…With regards to pressure distribution, during barefoot standing, most of the studies have indicated controversial results with some researchers showing that the heel bore weight 2 to 3 times the forefoot 3,4,16 and others showing that the heel bears a similar load to the forefoot. 17-19 The current study observed moderate correlation between the forefoot and hindfoot pressures, which is in concurrence with the latter group of studies.…”

Plantar Static Pressure Distribution in Healthy Individuals

“…13 Some studies find that either the rear foot load comes to a double or triple fold in patients with foot pathologies or that the forefoot and rear foot load in healthy subjects are alike. 14-16 Due to the small number of cases the results of those studies are not significant. Inconsistencies arise as different systems and methods were applied to measure static pressure and load.…”
