The purpose of this study was to assess the impact of ankle osteoarthritis on the energetics …

Few studies have assessed the changes produced by multiple joint impairments (MJI) of the
lower limbs on gait in patients with haemophilia (PWH). In patients with MJI, quantifiable …

Background The ankle continues to be one of the most affected joints in the haemophilia
patient, and as cartilage damage progresses, the joint can feel unstable, painful and stiff …

Hemophilic arthropathy is the result of repetitive intra-articular bleeding and synovial
inflammation. In people with hemophilic arthropathy (PWHA), very little is known about the …

of repeated haemarthrosis include cartilage damage and irreversible arthropathy, resulting …

Although foot orthoses are often prescribed to patients with haemophilia (PWH) and ankle
arthropathy, the efficacy and biomechanical effects of such devices are not fully understood …

Objective: To assess the effect of an ankle-foot orthosis on the gait and energy parameters of
walking in chronic hemiparetic subjects. Design: With/without group comparison. Setting …

The purpose of this study was to analyse kinematic and kinetic gait changes in rheumatoid
arthritis (RA) patients in comparison to healthy controls and to examine whether levels of …

BACKGROUND: Foot and ankle joint kinematic differences have been identified between
healthy subjects and subjects with various pathologies suffering from foot and ankle …

Background Individuals with osteoarthritis (OA) of the lower limb find normal locomotion
tiring compared with individuals without OA, possibly because OA of any lower limb joint …
