Background: This study analysed changes in gait and pedobarography and subjective and functional outcomes after isolated Chopart joint injury.
Methods: The results of 14 patients were reviewed. Kinematic 3D gait analysis, comparative bilateral electromyography (EMG) and pedobarography were performed.
We comment on the paper by Seibt and coworkers (Seibt2023) which investigates whether wearing an additional respiratory measurement mask during open-circuit spirometry assessments (respirometry mask) shows any effect on breathing pressure and perceived respiratory effort when wearing protective face masks commonly worn during the COVID-19 pandemic.

- A study tested 40 participants (20 men and 20 women) on the discomfort caused by different masks (surgical, community, FFP2, and no mask) while performing physical tasks.
- Participants reported increased feelings of heat, humidity, and difficulty breathing as they exerted themselves and wore masks longer, especially with the FFP2 mask.
- Despite the discomfort from mask use, there was no significant impact on cognitive performance; those who struggled with discomfort reported feeling more impaired during physical activities.
Background: The aim of this retrospective study was to analyze gait kinematicsandoutcome parameters after knee arthrodesis.
Methods: Fifteenpatients with a mean follow-up of 5.9 (range0.
The use of face masks became mandatory during SARS-CoV-2 pandemic. Wearing masks may lead to complaints about laboured breathing and stress. The influence of different masks on cardiopulmonary performance was investigated in a partially double-blinded randomized cross-over design.
