Background Static measures of foot posture are regularly used as part of a clinical
examination to determine the need for foot level interventions. This is based on the premise …

Objectives To research and summarize the literature regarding the role of core stability as a
risk factor in the development of lower extremity injuries in an athletic population. Methods …

Excessive or prolonged foot pronation has been linked to the development of numerous
overuse injuries affecting the lower limb. The originally proposed pathomechanical model …

Aim The purpose of this study was to determine the changes in running mechanics that
occur when highly trained runners run barefoot and in a minimalist shoe, and specifically if …

Background: Previous research has demonstrated clear associations between specific
running injuries and patterns of lower limb kinematics. However, there has been minimal …

Background Medial tibial stress syndrome (MTSS) affects 5%–35% of runners. Research
over the last 40 years investigating a range of interventions has not established any clearly …

Both kinematics and kinetics of the lower limb have been shown separately to be related
with a history of tibial stress fractures (TSFs) in female runners. However, it is likely that …

This current concept, narrative review provides the latest integrated evidence of the
musculoskeletal injuries involved with trail running and therapeutic strategies to prevent …

Tendinopathy can result from overuse and is experienced in the affected tendon as pain with
activity, focal tenderness to palpation, and decreased ability to tolerate tension, which results …

In 1992 van Mechelen et al published a “sequence of prevention model” based on a four-
step process. This model has been widely used to implement preventive measures in …
