The foot is one of the most important anatomical structures of the human body. It is mainly responsible for maintaining an appropriate position, both in static and dynamic conditions. This function is conditioned by many factors, the most important being a normal shape of the foot arch, which determines its proper operation. Any deviation from the norm may result in disruption in the performance of the foot and affect the functioning of even distant segments of the human body. The aim of this study was to evaluate the correlation between the foot arches and the efficiency of the balance mechanism in standing.
The study enrolled 48 individuals, of whom 21 were women and 27 men. Evaluation of the foot arches was performed using Clarke's angle index, which was determined with the use of a mirror podoscope produced by Podoskop.pl and a specialist computer program FREEstep. The efficiency of the balance mechanism in the standing position was evaluated on the basis of six stabilographic tests.
A statistical analysis showed a significant relationship between the mean value of Clarke's angle index in bipedal standing and the result of the stabilographic test for bipedal standing with eyes closed, and between the value of Clarke's angle index for the left foot in bipedal standing and the result of stabilographic tests for bipedal standing both with the eyes open and closed.
足部是人体最重要的解剖结构之一。它主要负责在静态和动态条件下保持适当的位置。这个功能受到许多因素的影响,最重要的是足部弓的正常形状,这决定了它的正常运作。任何偏离正常的情况都可能导致足部功能紊乱,并影响人体甚至更远部位的功能。本研究的目的是评估足弓与站立平衡机制效率之间的相关性。
该研究纳入了 48 名个体,其中 21 名女性,27 名男性。使用 Clarke 角指数评估足弓,该指数通过使用 Podoskop.pl 生产的镜像足印仪和专门的计算机程序 FREEstep 确定。站立位平衡机制的效率通过六项动静态平衡测试进行评估。
统计分析显示,双足站立时 Clarke 角指数的平均值与闭眼时的动静态平衡测试结果之间,以及双足站立时左足 Clarke 角指数与睁眼和闭眼时的动静态平衡测试结果之间存在显著相关性。
