To determine the modifiable risk factors associated with severity of plantar fasciitis and to formulate an objective scoring system for indexing plantar fasciitis in the non-athletic population. This was a prospective observational study. The main outcome measure was the association of a modifiable risk factor, which was measured with the Pearson coefficient (R-value) and the level of significance, which was kept as < 0.05. In a sample size of 50 patients, the body mass index (BMI) and ill-cushioned shoes were found to be significantly associated with pain in plantar fasciitis. All the other risk factors were either non-modifiable or had no significant association. Based on available data and further interpretation, an index was be formulated, named as Ranjeet-Kunal Index for Scoring Plantar fasciitis (RKISP), which can be successfully used for not only grading plantar fasciitis but also prognosticating the conservative management of the same, thus deciding the modality of treatment.
确定与足底筋膜炎严重程度相关的可改变风险因素，并制定一个客观评分系统，用于对非运动员人群的足底筋膜炎进行分度。 这是一项前瞻性观察性研究。主要结局指标是一个可改变风险因素的相关性，该因素通过Pearson系数（R值）进行测量，显著性水平设定为<0.05。 在50例患者的样本中，发现体重指数（BMI）和鞋底缓冲不良与足底筋膜炎疼痛显著相关。所有其他风险因素要么不可改变，要么无显著相关性。 根据现有数据和进一步解读，制定了一个指数，命名为兰吉特 - 库纳尔足底筋膜炎评分指数（RKISP），它不仅可以成功用于对足底筋膜炎进行分级，还可以对其保守治疗进行预后评估，从而确定治疗方式。
