“…The Ponseti method has a more pronounced correction rate in the treatment of talipes equinovarus than the Kite method [22]. Biomechanical function and long-term results in children treated with the Ponseti method in the middle childhood were closer to those in healthy individuals than in children treated with surgery alone [23]. An important aspect of the Ponseti™ casting technique is Achilles tendon amputation (AT) [24][25][26] to obtain a flexible foot rather than a fully corrected foot [27].…”

A retrospective study of 104 patients (81 male and 23 females, the age range from 2 to 288days) with talipes equinus was conducted to explore the case factors associated with it. We analyzed and discussed the correlation of plaster correction times, age of first visit, gender, and birthplace of patients in the department and understood their correlation and causality. The data were analyzed using frequency analysis, normality test, chi-square goodness-of-fit test, chi-square test, and PLS regression. The findings are set out below. All the distributions of the number of plaster casts in the samples did not have normality. Therefore, we used the nonparametric test and partial least squares regression (PLS regression) and found that the number of plaster casts was more closely related to the age at first visit, gender, and birthplace and had a strong positive correlation. There was a negative correlation between the times of plaster correction and the compliance of braces. The lower the compliance of patients with braces, the more times the plaster correction will be conducted.

“…Initially, the search strategy provided 1194 unique articles. After screening articles for inclusion and exclusion criteria, 20 studies met the criteria [24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36][37][38][39][40][41][42][43]. Articles were mainly excluded since the described clubfoot cohort was not treated with the Ponseti method, and no kinematic outcomes were reported (Figure 1).…”

“…Since the overcorrected clubfoot is a single specific group, the results of this study are presented in the Appendix (Appendix C, Table A2). In 16 studies, children walked at a self-selected speed [24,[26][27][28][29][30][31][33][34][35][36]38,[40][41][42][43]. In the other four included studies, no information on walking speed was provided [25,32,37,39].…”

Kinematic Gait Impairments in Children with Clubfeet Treated by the Ponseti Method: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

Background: Being aware of possible gait impairments in Ponseti-treated clubfoot children might be useful for optimizing initial and additional treatment. Therefore, this systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to identify kinematic gait abnormalities in children with clubfoot treated with the Ponseti method (with and without relapse). Methods: A systematic search was conducted. Studies comparing kinematic gait parameters of Ponseti-treated clubfoot children to healthy controls were included. Meta-analyses and qualitative analyses were conducted on the extracted data. Results: Twenty studies were identified. Twelve of the 153 reported kinematic outcome measures could be included in the meta-analysis. Plantarflexion at push-off, maximum ankle dorsiflexion during the swing, maximal plantarflexion, and ankle range of motion was significantly lower in Ponseti-treated clubfoot children. Ponseti-treated clubfoot children showed more internal foot progression. Qualitative analysis revealed 51 parameters in which pre-treatment relapse clubfeet deviated from healthy controls. Conclusions: Ponseti-treated clubfoot children showed several kinematic gait differences from healthy controls. In future studies, homogeneity in measured variables and study population and implementation of multi-segmental foot models will aid in comparing studies and understanding clubfoot complexity and treatment outcomes. The question remains as to what functional problems gait impairments lead to and whether additional treatment could address these problems.

“…In this deformity, the affected foot rotates inward at the ankle-the foot points down, facing inward and the sole. 50% of clubfoot patients have bilateral clubfoot (both feet are affected), the tendon on the inner leg is shortened, the bone has an unusual shape, and the Achilles tendon is strained [32].…”

The number of layers of deep learning (DL) increases, and following the performance of computing nodes improvement, the output accuracy of deep neural networks (DNN) faces a bottleneck problem. The resident network (RN) based DNN model was applied to address these issues recently. This paper improved the RN and developed a rectified linear unit (ReLU) based conditional generative adversarial nets (cGAN) to classify plantar pressure images. A foot scan system collected the plantar pressure images, in which normal (N), planus (PL), and talipes equinovarus feet (TE) data-sets were acquired subsequently. The 9-foot types named N, PL, TE, N-PL, N-TE, PL-N, PL-TE, TE-N, and TE-PL were classified using the proposed DNN models, named resident network-based conditional generative adversarial nets (RNcGAN). It improved the RN structure firstly and the cGAN system hereafter. In the classification of plantar pressure images, the pixel-level state matrix can be direct as an input, which is different from the previous image classification task with image reduction and feature extraction. cGAN can directly output the pixels of the image without any simplification. Finally, the model achieved better results in the evaluation indicators of accuracy (AC), sensitivity (SE), and F1-measurement (F1) by comparing to artificial neural networks (ANN), k-nearest neighbor (kNN), Fast Region-based Convolution Neural Network (Fast R-CNN), visual geometry group (VGG16), scaled-conjugate-gradient convolution neural networks (SCG-CNN), GoogleNet, AlexNet, ResNet-50-177, and Inception-v3. The final prediction of class accuracy is 95.17%. Foot type classification is vital for producing comfortable shoes in the industry.
