Effectiveness of off-the-shelf footwear in reducing foot pain in Australian Department of Veterans’ Affairs recipients not eligible for medical grade footwear: study protocol for a randomized controlled trial
TL;DR: This study is the first randomized controlled trial to evaluate the effectiveness of off-the-shelf footwear in reducing foot pain in DVA recipients and has been pragmatically designed to ensure that the study findings can be implemented into policy and clinical practice if found to be effective.
Journal ArticleDOI
Variation in the location of the shoe sole flexion point influences plantar loading patterns during gait
Babette C van der Zwaard,Benedicte Vanwanseele,F.C. Holtkamp,Henriëtte E. van der Horst,Petra J. M. Elders,Hylton B. Menz +5 more
TL;DR: The findings of this study indicate that the location of the soleflexion point of the shoe influences plantar loading patterns during gait, and shoes with a sole flexion point located under the midfoot significantly decrease the magnitude and duration of loading under theMidfoot and hindfoot, which may be indicative of an earlier heel lift.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hallux valgus severity, great toe pain, and plantar pressures during gait: A cross‐sectional study of community‐dwelling adults
Gregory R. Clarke,Martin J. Thomas,Trishna Rathod-Mistry,Michelle Marshall,Hylton B. Menz,Hylton B. Menz,George Peat,Edward Roddy +7 more
TL;DR: Greater HV severity is associated with great toe pain and reduced loading under the hallux when walking, and observed changes in plantar pressure and maximum force may reflect a pain avoidance mechanism.
Journal ArticleDOI
Idiopathic peripheral neuropathy increases fall risk in a population-based cohort study of older adults
Jody L. Riskowski,Lien Quach,B. Manor,B. Manor,Hylton B. Menz,Hylton B. Menz,Lewis A. Lipsitz,Lewis A. Lipsitz,Marian T. Hannan +8 more
TL;DR: The objective was to evaluate associations between PN and prospectively-ascertained falls in older adults from the population-based MOBILIZE Boston Study.
Journal ArticleDOI
Risk factors for lower limb injuries during initial naval training: a prospective study
TL;DR: Lower limb injury was not accurately predicted from health questionnaires, fitness results and clinical assessments in naval recruits undertaking initial defence training, however, although not reaching statistical significance, the use of foot orthoses may be protective against common lower limb injuries.
