Purpose: The objectives of this study were to determine whether peripheral artery disease affects the quality of life and pain level and functionality of the foot in patients with DM.
Methods: The sample consisted of 150 participants: with peripheral vasculopathy and DM, with DM, without peripheral vasculopathy, with neither DM nor peripheral vasculopathy.
Purpose: The aim of this descriptive study was to determine whether people with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) wear adequately fitting footwear.

June 2018
Background: The aim of this study is to explore the changes in ground reaction force (GRF) produced by custom-made weight-bearing and nonweight-bearing foot orthoses and by a prefabricated foot orthosis, in the control of the pronated foot.
Methods: Thirty-nine participants were recruited. All were in good health, aged 18 to 25 years, and presented pronated foot.
