There are studies that show the better balance after dry needling in lumbar pain. However, the postural control effects after foot dry needling are unknown. Our objective was to check if dry needling reduces postural control.

Nowadays, RADAI-F5 has been validated in different languages; however a Spanish version was lacking. Therefore, the purpose of this research was to translate and validate the Spanish version (RADAI-F5-es).

- The study aimed to examine plantar pressures in asthmatic patients and how they differ from healthy individuals due to the high prevalence of asthma and its potential link to musculoskeletal issues.* -
- It included 90 participants, with 45 asthmatics and 45 healthy controls, using a portable pressure sensor to record static plantar pressure data.* -
- Results indicated significant differences in plantar pressures, with asthmatic patients showing lower maximum pressure in the right forefoot and less weight on the left heel, suggesting these changes are related to asthma.*
Background: The effect of Leg-Length Discrepancy (LLD) on dynamic gait parameters has been extensively discussed. Podobarography is the study of foot-to-ground pressure distribution. It has been used to test plantar footprint deviations that could reveal pathology.

Background: Leg length discrepancy (LLD) may play a key role in exercise biomechanics. Although the Podoprint platform has been used in dynamic pressure studies, there are no data regarding the reliability and repeatability of dynamic measurements under simulated LLD conditions.
Objectives: To determine the intra and intersession repeatability and reliability of dynamic parameters of the Podoprint pressure platform under simulated LLD conditions.
