There is not any method to measure metatarsal protrusion in the whole metatarsal. The aim of this research is to know the normal metatarsal parabola in male and female feet. The system of measurement devised by Hardy and Clapham to evaluate the protrusion between metatarsals I and II was adapted to study the whole metatarsal parabola and applied to the five metatarsals of 169 normal feet, 72 female feet and 97 male feet. Authors measured all metatarsal protrusion relative to metatarsal II. The results obtained show a female metatarsal protrusion relative to metatarsal II of +1.27% for metatarsal I, -3.36% for metatarsal III, -8.34% for metatarsal IV, and -15.54% for metatarsal V. Data obtained for male metatarsal parabola were +0.5% for metatarsal I, -3.77 for metatarsal III, -9.57 for metatarsal IV, and -17.05 for metatarsal V. Differences between both metatarsal parabola were significant.
目前尚无测量整个跖骨中跖骨突出度的方法。本研究的目的是了解男性和女性足部的正常跖骨抛物线。哈代和克拉普姆设计的用于评估第一和第二跖骨之间突出度的测量系统,被用于研究整个跖骨抛物线,并应用于169只正常足(72只女性足和97只男性足)的五根跖骨。作者测量了所有相对于第二跖骨的跖骨突出度。所得结果显示,相对于第二跖骨,女性第一跖骨的突出度为+1.27%,第三跖骨为-3.36%,第四跖骨为-8.34%,第五跖骨为-15.54%。男性跖骨抛物线的数据为:第一跖骨为+0.5%,第三跖骨为-3.77,第四跖骨为-9.57,第五跖骨为-17.05。两种跖骨抛物线之间的差异具有显著性。
