Women’s Footwear Sole for the Elderly Produced with Sustainable Material: Friction Coefficient Analysis
(2020-01-01)
One possibility to intervene in falls due to slipping is to use shoes with soles that can resist possible slips. The objective of this research is to evaluate the friction coefficient of the female footwear for the elderly ...
The effects of habitual footwear in gait outcomes in people with Parkinson's disease
(2019-02-01)
Background: Gait is impaired in individuals with Parkinson's disease (PD). Although the effect of habitual footwear on gait spatiotemporal parameters has already been established in neurologically healthy individuals, its ...
Envelhecimento, antropometria dos pés e pressões plantares em idosos
(Universidade Federal de São CarlosUFSCarPrograma de Pós-Graduação em Fisioterapia - PPGFtCâmpus São Carlos, 2016-06-27)
Many studies note the anthropometric and postural differences of elderly feet compared

older people. The types and characteristics of ...
Joint loading decreased by inexpensive and minimalist footwear in elderly women with knee osteoarthritis during stair descent
(WILEY-BLACKWELLMALDEN, 2013-08-02)
Objective Previous studies indicate that flexible footwear, which mimics the biomechanics of walking barefoot, results in decreased knee loads in patients with knee osteoarthritis (OA) during walking. However, the effect ...
Effectiveness of a long-term use of a minimalist footwear versus habitual shoe on pain, function and mechanical loads in knee osteoarthritis: a randomized controlled trial
(BIOMED CENTRAL LTDLONDON, 2012)
Background: Recent studies have shown an important reduction of joint overload during locomotion in elderly women with knee osteoarthritis (OA) after short- term use of minimalist shoes. Our aim is to investigate the chronic ...
