Disease relevance of Flatfoot

 

Psychiatry related information on Flatfoot

 

High impact information on Flatfoot

  • To indicate that this protein could be associated with transformation of arborized foot processes to flat feet (Latin, pes planus) we have called it podoplanin [5].
  • Three signs not stressed previously were hyperreflexia, flat feet, and irregular dental development [6].
  • Foot type was also significantly associated with hallux limitus (p = 0.006) with pes planus feet having the highest prevalence as compared with neutrally aligned feet (OR = 2.19, p = 0.003) [7].
  • Foot shape and its effect on functioning in Royal Australian Air Force recruits. Part 2: Pilot, randomized, controlled trial of orthotics in recruits with flat feet [8].
  • The Authors carried out an experimental study on a homogeneous group of young people to provide evidence of functional correlation among masticatory muscles and, indirectly, between changes to the interdental occlusal plane and modifications of the plantar arches due to talipes valgus and flat foot [9].
 

Chemical compound and disease context of Flatfoot

  • Although the authors do not advocate clinical use, the deltoid ligament reconstruction was more effective than flexor digitorum longus tendon transfer in restoring arch alignment in flatfoot [10].
 

Anatomical context of Flatfoot

  • CONCLUSION: Posterior tibial tendon tears are common in RA flat feet, but are usually incomplete and are not solely responsible for the flat foot deformity [11].
 

Gene context of Flatfoot

  • A modified subtalar arthroereisis implant for the correction of flexible flatfoot in children. The STA Peg procedure [12].
 

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of Flatfoot

  • Triple arthrodesis has not been required in rheumatoid arthritis in the author's series but occasionally is necessary in the post-traumatic rigid flatfoot [13].
  • When used in combination with flexor digitorum longus transfer, the medial calcaneal slide osteotomy is an effective method of treatment for the adult acquired flatfoot associated with insufficiency of the posterior tibial tendon [14].
