Age affects gross shoulder range of motion (ROM), but biomechanical changes over a
lifetime are typically only characterized for the humerothoracic joint. Suitable age-related …

Background: Tibiotalar arthrodesis is a common treatment for end-stage tibiotalar
osteoarthritis, and is associated with a long-term risk of concomitant subtalar osteoarthritis. It …

The aim of this systematic review was to examine the effects of foot orthoses on gait
kinematics and low back pain (LBP) in individuals with leg length inequality (LLI). This …

Currently available musculoskeletal inverse-dynamics thoracolumbar spine models are
entirely based on data from adults and might therefore not be applicable for simulations in …

Background Leg length discrepancy (LLD) is commonly associated with compensatory gait
strategies leading to musculoskeletal disorders of the lower extremity and lumbar spine …

Background: Mild leg length discrepancy can lead to musculoskeletal disorders; however,
the magnitude starting from which leg length discrepancy alters the biomechanics of gait or …

Introduction The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of Internal and
External Heel Lift Insoles (IHLI, EHLI) on pelvic kinematics and lower extremity joint …

Background Stair climbing is a complex and demanding daily activity with increased
physical loads. Therefore, analyzing stair climbing abilities is a frequently used diagnostic …

Background Footwear adjustment is recommended in the management plan of leg length
discrepancy. However, it is not clear how the outsole of motion control shoe adjustment …

Background Skin marker-based analysis of functional spinal movement is a promising
method for quantifying longitudinal effects of treatment interventions in patients with spinal …
