| Abstract | Plantar heel pain is aggravated by weight-bearing, yet limited evidence exists regarding how people with heel pain load their feet during walking. Knowledge of loading patterns in people with plantar heel pain would enhance the understanding of their foot function and assist in developing intervention strategies. Plantar pressure using the Emed-AT platform (Novel Gmbh, Germany) was collected from 198 people with plantar heel pain and 70 asymptomatic controls during normal walking. Maximum force, force-time integral, peak pressure, pressure-time integral and contact time were measured in four quadrants of the heel, the midfoot and the medial and lateral forefoot. The symptomatic group was sub-divided into equal low-pain and high-pain groups using the Foot Health Status Questionnaire pain score. Following age and body mass comparison, multivariate analyses of covariance were performed to compare the heel pain group to the controls, and the low-pain group to the high-pain group, for each loading variable. The heel pain group displayed lower maximum force beneath the heel, lower peak pressure beneath the postero-lateral heel and lower maximum force beneath the medial forefoot. Force-time integrals were lower beneath the posterior heel regions and higher at the lateral forefoot. People with heel pain also had longer midfoot and forefoot contact time. Higher pain level was associated with lower peak pressure and maximum force beneath regions of the heel. Compared to the controls, people with plantar heel pain demonstrated reduced heel loading and modified forefoot loading consistent with a strategy to offload the painful heel. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
