Full textAbstract:
Introduction: aim of this study was to establish normality parameters and analyze 3D kinematic data before and after surgical correction of the pediatric flexible flat foot
Materials and methods: study population was composed of 2 groups: 10 children (20 feet, 5M/5F)without any disorders of the foot were evaluated to obtain normal reference data; 20 children with bilateral flexible flatfoot candidate to bilateral surgical correction (40 feet, 13M/7F) The RFM -3D kinematics protocol was used. Clinical, radiographic and instrumental evaluation were performed preoperatively and at 12 months by the same surgeon An arthroereisis of the subtalar joint was performed by the same surgeon. Patients were divided in 3 groups:1:normality;2:before surgery;3: after surgery. For all the variables and for the three planes of the space comparison between groups were performed.
Results: 3D rotational joint variables and planar angles were defined for normality, before and after sur-gery at the upright standing position. Differences were observed: hind foot , frontal plane; Chopart Joint ,transverse plane; Lisfanc Joint, frontal/transverse planes; ratio between 1rst and 2nd metatarsal, transverse plane; 2nd and 5th metatarsal versus ground respectively, sagittal plane; MLA, transverse plane
Discussion/conclusions:: different variables, normalized after correction, suggest that surgery performed at the hind foot can also improves mid foot pronation, increases the medial longitudinal arch and im-proves ratio between metatarsal bones, allowing to quantify changes that clinical and radiological evaluation cannot provide. The pediatric foot is similar to the adults and pediatric flexible flat foot could be corrected surgically, even if painless.

Jalal, Pasha, and Jose Andres Perez. "Punching shear in concrete flat slabs supported on slender edge steel columns." Thesis, KTH, Betongbyggnad, 2020. http://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:kth:diva-278546.
Full textAbstract:
Punching shear is a failure mechanism caused by concentrated loads, creating a crack pattern that resembles a cone shape or piece of pie starting from the top surface of the slab and prolongs downwards. When the total shear force is greater than the shear resistance of the slab, it may eventually lead to punching shear failure. It can be visualized as the column punches through the slab. Punching shear is very brittle and occurs all of a sudden. It is believed that the slab is subjected to hogging moments over the column in both directions, i.e. parallel and perpendicular to the free edge. Non-linear finite element analyses (NLFEA) has been used to study the cracking and failure mechanism for the reinforced slab. It is a slab over the edge support without clamping stiffness, therefore simulating the slab shear mechanism over a slender steel column is carried out in this study. The analyses has been performed using the software ATENA 3D Engineering developed by Červenka Consulting. Since the symmetry has been taken into account over an edge column, only one half of the cross-section has been modeled, with a symmetry line passing vertically through the slab and column. It can be summarized that the failure encountered around the column has a conical shape crack pattern similar to the ones encountered when punching shear occurs. However, it is important to note that this failure is not due to classic punching shear, but instead due to shear cracks developing around the column in both directions, both parallel and perpendicular to the free-edge. Three models (C1, C2, and C3) are studied to evaluate the impact that the length of the lower leg of the c-bar reinforcement has during failure. As mentioned earlier above, the crack propagation during punching shear begins from the upper surface of the slab and prolongs downwards diagonally towards the bottom of the slab and adjacent to the column. However, the crack propagation in the strip perpendicular to the free edge in all three models initiate from the bottom and propagate upwards. It can be concluded that the length reduction of the lower leg of the c-bars as a consequence reduced the shear strength capacity of the slab around the steel-plate. The reason for this is due to a reduction in maximum peak load when the lower leg of the c-bars were reduced. Consequently, this leads to a decrease in shear strength capacity of the slab and an earlier failure, where the inner-span was not able to take additional loads which could have led to greater deflections.<br>Genomstansning är en brottmekanism orsakad av koncentrerade laster, vilket skapar ett sprickmönster i likhet med en konfrom ellet en bit av paj som börjar från den övre ytan av plattan och förlängs nedåt. När den totala skjuvkraften är större än skjuvmotståndet i plattan , kan det så småningom leda till ett genomstansningsbrott. Det kan visualiseras som att pelaren stansar eller slår igenom plattan. Genomstansning är ett mycket sprött brott och inträffar helt plötsligt. Det antas att plattan utsätts för negativt moment ovanför pelaren i båda riktningarna, d.v.s såväl parallellt som vinkelrät mot den fria kanten. Icke-linjära finita elementanalyser (NLFEA) har använts för att studera sprickbildnings och brottmekanismen för den förstärkta plattan. Det är en platta över kantstödet utan någon fast inspänd styvhet, därför simuleras skjuvmekanismen för plattan över en slank stålpelare i denna studie. Analyserna har utförts med programvaran ATENA 3D Engineering som utvecklats av Červenka Consulting. Eftersom hänsyn har tagits till symmetrin över en kantpelare har endast halva tvärsnittet modellerats, med en symmetrilinje som går vertikalt genom plattan och pelaren. Det kan sammanfattas att brottet som påträffas runt pelaren har en konisk form med ett sprickamönster som liknar de som påträffas vid genomstansning. Det är dock viktigt att notera att detta brott inte orsakats av klassisk genomstansning, utan istället på grund av skjuvsprickor som utvecklast runt pelaren i båda riktningarna, såväl parallellt som vinkelrät mot den fria kanten. Som det tidigare nämnts ovanför börjar sprickan vid genomstansning från plattans övre yta och förlängs nedåt diagonalt mot bottenplattan och intill pelaren. Sprickmönstret i remsan vinkelrät mot den fria kanten i alla tre modellerna (C1, C2 och C3) initierar dock från botten och sprids uppåt. Slutsatsen kan dras att längdminskningen av c-stängernas underben minskade skjuvhållfastheten hos betongplattan runt pelaren. Anledningen till detta beror på en minskning av maximal toppbelastning när c-stängernas underben reducerades. Följaktligen leder detta till en minskning av skjuvhållfastheten och ett tidigare brott, där den inre spännvidden inte kunda ta ytterligare belastningar som kunde ha lett till större nedböjningar.

Smith, Brian A. "Computational Modeling to Assess Surgical Procedures for the Treatment of Adult Acquired Flatfoot Deformity." VCU Scholars Compass, 2015. http://scholarscompass.vcu.edu/etd/4019.
Full textAbstract:
Several surgically corrective procedures are considered to treat Adult Acquired Flatfoot Deformity (AAFD) patients, relieve pain, and restore function. Procedure selection is based on best practices and surgeon preference. Recent research created patient specific models of Adult Acquired Flatfoot Deformity (AAFD) to explore their predictive capabilities and examine effectiveness of the surgical procedure used to treat the deformity. The models’ behavior was governed solely by patient bodyweight, soft tissue constraints, and joint contact without the assumption of idealized joints. The current work expanded those models to determine if an alternate procedure would be more effective for the individual. These procedures included one hindfoot procedure, the Medializing Calcaneal Osteotomy (MCO), and one of three lateral column procedures: Evans osteotomy, Calcaneocuboid Distraction Arthrodesis (CCDA), Z osteotomy and the combination procedures MCO & Evans osteotomy, MCO & CCDA, and MCO & Z osteotomy all used in combination with a tendon transfer. The combination MCO & Evans and MCO & Z procedures were shown to provide the greatest amount of correction for both forefoot abduction and hindfoot valgus. However, these two procedures significantly increased the joint contact force, specifically at the calcaneocuboid joint, and ground reaction force along the lateral column. With exception to the lateral bands of the plantar fascia and middle spring ligament, the strain present in the plantar fascia, spring, and deltoid ligaments decreased after all procedures. The use of patient specific computational models provided the ability to investigate effects of alternate surgical corrections on restoring biomechanical function in flatfoot patients.

Full textAbstract:
The use of computational modeling is an increasingly commonplace technique for the investigation of biomechanics in intact and pathological musculoskeletal systems. Moreover, given the robust and repeatable nature of computer simulation and the prevalence of software techniques for accurate 3-D reconstructions of tissues, the predictive power of these models has increased dramatically. However, there are no patient-specific kinematic models whose function is dictated solely by physiologic soft-tissue constraints, articular shape and contact, and without idealized joint approximations. Moreover, very few models have attempted to predict surgical effects combined with postoperative validation of those predictions. Given this, it is not surprising that the area of foot/ankle modeling has been especially underserved. Thus, we chose to investigate the pre- and postoperative kinematics of Adult Acquired Flatfoot Deformity (AAFD) across a cohort of clinically diagnosed sufferers. AAFD was chosen as it is a chronic and degenerative disease wherein degradation of soft-tissue supporters of the medial arch eventually cause gross malalignment in the mid- and hindfoot, along with significant pain and dysfunction. Also, while planar radiographs are still used to diagnose and stage the disease, it is widely acknowledged that these 2-D measures fail to fully describe the 3-D nature of AAFD. Thus, a population of six patient-specific rigid-body computational models was developed using the commercially available software packages Mimics® and SolidWorks® in order to investigate foot function in patients with diagnosed Stage IIb AAFD. Each model was created from patient-specific sub-millimeter MRI scans, loaded with body weight, individualized muscle forces, and ligament forces, in single leg stance. The predicted model kinematics were validated pre- and postoperatively using clinically utilized radiographic angle distance measures as well as plantar force distributions. The models were then further exploited to predict additional biomechanical parameters such as articular contact force and soft-tissue strain, as well as the effect of hypothetical surgical interventions. Subsequently, kinematic simulations demonstrated that the models were able to accurately predict foot/ankle motion in agreement with their respective patients. Additionally, changes in joint contact force and ligament strain observed across surgical states further elucidate the complex biomechanical underpinnings of foot and ankle function.

Full textAbstract:
Le pied plat valgus dynamique idiopathique est une déformation touchant un grand nombre d’enfants. Il fait l’objet de la plupart des consultations d’orthopédie pédiatrique et donne communément lieu au port d’orthèses plantaires correctives. Le pied étant un segment dont l’architecture lui confère des propriétés de souplesse et de robustesse, une altération de sa structure, en particulier touchant à la forme de la voute plantaire, peut engendrer des modifications de la marche. Les atteintes de cette déformation sont au cœur de beaucoup d’études mais la littérature reste toujours parcellaire et centrée sur quelques variables mesurées sur le membre inférieur. En revanche, s’il est important d’évaluer la déformation localement, la marche reste une coordination de l’ensemble des segments corporels hautement hiérarchisée, dont l’évaluation de la performance nécessite des analyses plus globales. Le travail de cette thèse s’attachera à effectuer une caractérisation de l’effet de la présence d’un pied plat valgus dynamique sur la marche de l’enfant, mêlant des méthodes issues de la biomécanique classique, aux analyses de données et aus théories des systèmes dynamiques non linéaires.Les principaux résultats de ce travail concernent la multiplicité des atteintes biomécanique et les nombreuses modifications que le pied plat valgus dynamique engendre au niveau musculaire et cinématique sur le membre inférieur. Les mouvements intrinsèques du pied s’avèrent refléter particulièrement le défaut de maitrise de la marche à l’échelle du patient. Enfin, le pied s’avèrera jouer un rôle protecteur du centre de masse vis-à-vis du maintien de la stabilité dynamique lors de la marche<br>The pediatric flexible flat foot is a common deformation. It is the reason of most pediatric orthopedic consultations and commonly leads corrective foot orthotics prescription. The specific architecture of the normal foot gives it properties of adaptation, strength and flexibility. Any alteration of its structure, particularly related to the shape of the plantar arch can cause modifications in gait. A lot of studies investigated the effects of this deformation, but are generally centered on a small number of variables, only at the level of the lower limb. However, if the local deformation is important to assess, it is unlikely to represent the complex non-linear coordination of the whole body segments related to gait performance. This thesis aims at characterizing the effect of flexible flat foot on gait in children, from a biomechanical point of view at the lower limb level as well as at the global coordination level, using methods from classicla biomechanics, data analysis and non linear dynamical systems theories.The major outcomes of this work are the multiplicity of biomechanical effects and the numerous changes on muscles activities and kinematics of the lower limb caused by flexible flat foot. The intrinsic foot movements particularly reflect the lack of control of gait at the patient's level. The particular role of the trunk and contralateral leg regarding the specific locomotor pattern of patients will be detailed. Finally, the foot will appear to have a protective role of the center of mass concerning resistance to perturbations and maintaining gait dynamic stability

Full textAbstract:
Magister Artium (Development Studies) - MA(DVS)<br>Growing urban food insecurity has prompted many researchers, NGOs, international agencies and governments to advocate for urban agriculture as a livelihood strategy to improve the household food security of the urban poor. Urban agriculture is an instrument for ensuring greater food security and a livelihood strategy for urban households. In South Africa increased attention on urban agriculture is triggered by current trends of urbanization, economic instability, high unemployment rates among the urban poor, and high food prices. Unemployment and urban food insecurity are high in low-income areas. In the Cape Flats, households with no or little disposable income, are food insecure and vulnerable to food insecurity. Income and wage employment are the main determinants of food security in urban areas. However, urban agriculture projects by two NGOs assist communities to be resourceful. Abalimi Bezekhaya, an NGO assists individuals and communities to start and maintain their own community gardens while Soil for Life promotes home food gardens. Abalimi Bezekhaya and Soil for Life seek to address the urban challenge by promoting self-sustained agriculture for food security and livelihoods. There has, however, been little empirical evidence suggesting that urban agriculture projects improve the food security and livelihoods of participants. This study assessed the potential of urban agriculture to address food security, examined the ways in which agriculture is used as a livelihood strategy for household food security, determined other livelihood strategies and coping mechanisms assumed by gardeners to become food secure, and demonstrates the contribution of NGOs in promoting agriculture in poor urban areas. Furthermore, this study addressed the following research questions: do community and household gardens provide a way of improving food and nutrition security and in what way are these impacts observable within participating households.
The research followed a mixed-method methodology. The literature is mapped out using international and local papers and empirical evidence collected on the subject. This study used the sustainable livelihoods approach as the theoretical lens through which to analyse the ways in which urban agriculture can be used as a viable livelihood strategy by urban gardeners. It also classified the constraints and opportunities, assets accessible, policies and institutions that exist, livelihood strategies and outcomes of the urban gardeners.
The findings of the study reveal that community and home gardens contribute moderately to livelihoods and food security in Khayelitsha. The results also reveal that 85% of the gardeners were either moderately or severely food insecure. Furthermore, 76.67% of gardeners purchased their food from supermarkets and local shops. Urban agriculture therefore plays a supplementary role in addressing household food security in Khayelitsha. The potential of community and home gardens to contribute to urban household food security and livelihoods is limited access to land and government assistance. There is a need for the City of Cape Town and the Department of Agriculture to assist and strengthen the practice of community and home gardens in Khayelitsha.

Full textAbstract:
Master of Science<br>Food Science Institute - Animal Sciences & Industry<br>Jayendra K. Amamcharla<br>High-protein dairy powders are added to a variety of products to improve nutritional, functional, and sensory properties. To have the intended properties, the powder must be soluble. The solubility is effected by processing storage, and dissolution conditions, as well as the type of powder. Various tests are used to determine solubility, but they are time-consuming and subjective. Literature has shown that ultrasound spectroscopy can characterize the solubility of high-protein dairy powders, but it requires expensive equipment and skilled technicians. An economical alternative is to use an ultrasonic flaw detector, which is commonly used in the construction industry. For this study, an ultrasonic flaw detector based method was developed to characterize the solubility of high protein dairy powders. To evaluate the method, commercially available milk protein concentrate (MPC) was obtained and stored at 25°C and 40°C and stored for four weeks to produce powders with different dissolution properties. To test the powders, a 5% (w/w) concentration of powder was added to water. A focused beam reflectance measurement (FBRM) and solubility index were used as a reference method. After powder addition, data was collected at regular intervals for 1800s. The FBRM and solubility index showed that the powders lost solubility as the storage time and temperature increased. From the ultrasound data, one parameter was extracted from the relative velocity and three parameters were extracted from the attenuation data. A soluble powder had a low relative velocity standard deviation from 900-1800s, high area under the attenuation curve, low peak time, and high peak height. The ultrasonic flaw detector detected differences in solubility before the solubility index. When testing MPC with protein contents ranging from 85% to 90% and at a dissolution temperature of 40°C and 48°C, data from the ultrasonic flaw detector and FBRM showed that the solubility decreased as the protein content increased and increasing the dissolution temperature improved the solubility of the powder. Overall, the ultrasonic flaw detector can characterize the solubility of high-protein dairy powders.

Full textAbstract:
Le coefficient de transfert de chaleur est nécessaire pour concevoir et dimensionner un évaporateur utilisé pour concentrer un liquide, tel que rencontré couramment dans les industries alimentaires. Le coefficient de transfert de chaleur le plus variable et le plus incertain est du coté produit, entre paroi et liquide, noté « h ». Il varie à la fois avec les propriétés thermo-physiques du liquide traité (ηL, σL, λL, ρL , CpL, ω, ...) et avec les paramètres du procédé (type d'évaporateur, φ ou Δθ, Γ (δ), P, rugosité de la surface, encrassement, etc), ces grandeurs étant définies dans le texte. Mais h est aussi lié au régime d'ébullition (nucléée ou non nucléée), et pour les évaporateurs de type « flot tombant », au régime d'écoulement laminaire ou turbulent, selon le nombre de Reynolds en film Ref. Nous avons étudié le cas des évaporateurs « à flot tombant », très utilisés dans les industries alimentaires pour concentrer le lait et les produits laitiers, les jus sucrés, les jus de fruits et légumes. L'objectif de notre travail était de définir une méthode fiable et économique pour évaluer a priori le coefficient de transfert de chaleur h coté liquide en ébullition, dans un évaporateur flot tombant. La première partie de la thèse a été consacrée à l'analyse bibliographique, qui a révélé une grande incertitude actuelle dans la prévision de h, sur la base des formules de la littérature, et des paramètres descripteurs proposés. La deuxième partie de la thèse a été de concevoir et construire un pilote utilisable pour estimer h, dans des conditions stationnaires connues et reproductibles. Dans la troisième partie, on présente les résultats et commente les lois de variations de h en fonction de la concentration de matière sèche du liquide XMS, de la température d'ébullition de liquide θL (ou P), du flux de chaleur φ ou (Δθ), et du débit massique de liquide par unité de périmètre de tube Γ, pour des propriétés de surface de chauffe fixées (ici, paroi en acier inoxydable poli Rs ≈ 0,8 μm). On commente l'effet sur h de chaque variable isolément, les autres étant maintenues constantes, ce qui confirme l'importance de la transition du régime non-nucléé au régime nucléé, cette transition variant avec la nature du liquide, sa concentration, et le flux de chaleur. On a montré la possibilité de modéliser un produit donné dans l'ensemble du domaine expérimental, où tous les paramètres peuvent varier simultanément, avec peu de coefficients, selon deux types d'équations (polynomiale et puissance). On a comparé le cas d'un liquide Newtonien (jus sucré) et non-Newtonien (solution de CMC dans l'eau). On a aussi observé le débit de mouillage critique Γcri et ses lois de variation. On a aussi démontré la possibilité de simplifier le plan d'expérience, aussi bien pour les liquides Newtoniens que non-Newtoniens, tout en gardant un coefficient de corrélation satisfaisant dans le domaine Γ > Γcri, cette modélisation pouvant servir de base de données produit pour l'ingénierie.

Full textAbstract:
博士<br>元智大學<br>工業工程與管理學系<br>106<br>Foot can be regarded as a sign of human aging process. Due to modern technological development, decreasing chances of walking and exercise resulted in degenerative development of foot muscles that easily leads to falls, also making the increase in the percentage of population with flatfeet. The longitudinal arch of a flatfoot is not obvious, causing poor foot balance control during aging.
The purpose of this study was to verify the balance-improvement strategy through changes in gait balance and static balance indicators: (1) normal foot with regular exercise and (2) flat foot with correction insoles. This study involved four commonly-used gait function test items used for balance measurement in relevant clinical research: 30 second seat test (30-sec CST), six-minute walk (6MW), time up and go (TUG) and one-leg standing (OLS) test with eyes closed. Static balance has been commonly used in recent years as a verification method by examining center of pressure (COP) data collected from the subject while standing upright on a force plate. The analyzed COP sway time-series in the anterior (AP) and mediallateral (ML) directions were derived from signals that were used to investigate the quantitative postural stability of the subjects when standing upright in each trial. These time-series signals of COP were quantized with the use of traditional measures and entropy-based measures used to assess postural stability. A total of 26 measure indicators include 23 items of traditional COP indicators and 3 items of complexity multi-scale entropy analysis MMSE, MSE_AP, MSE_ML. To verify the effect of improving postural stability through the observation for more than six months with two strategies by two different types of balance indicators: (1) regular exercise with normal feet and (2) orthopedic insole with flatfeet.
All patients in this study signed institutional review board (IRB) agreements before participation (IRB approval no.: NTU-REC 201206HS011).Sixty-five (mean age: 27.39±7.83 years) healthy adults aged 20–50 years participated in this study. These were categorized into two groups: normal (43 subjects, mean age: 27.28±7.66 years) and flatfooted (22 subjects, mean age: 27.59±8.32 years). Eighteen subjects with normal feet were tested in a regular exercise mode, while 14 subjects with flat feet were tested with orthopedic insole, in other control groups did not change their living habits. Six-month observation was conducted to monitor the changes in balance of the subjects. The changes in collection gait balance and static balance force were verified by the statistical method paired-t test, with a significant level of 0.05.
This study observes changes in balance of adults over six months. Through the static balance observed, no indicators show improvement of the balance for normal foot with regular exercise and flat foot with correction insoles. The improvement was seen in the gait balance indicators: (1) normal feet with regular exerciser: average number of pre-test (20.39±5.38) to post-test (27.94±6.58) increase of 7.56 (p-vlue=0.000) of 30-sec CST mean time (seconds) before the experiment (5.68± 0.88) 0.51 second (5.18±0.66) reduction (p-vlue=0.009) after the experiment of TUG, (2) flat feett with correction insoles: average number of pre-test (15.14±3.37) to post-test (24.86±5.52) increase of 9.71 times (p-vlue=0.000) of 30-sec CST and mean time (seconds) before the experiment (6.50±0.84) to post-experimental (5.47±1.06) decrease of 1.03 seconds (p-vlue =0.001) of TUG. The results of the study showed that the balance improvement strategies for normal foot with regular exercise and flat foot with correction insoles are effective. The results of the study suggest that further research might include more samples. The 30-sec CST and TUG test adopted in this study can be used to validate more studies on balance improvement of young adults.

Walking and running are basic moving method for most people.The foot pressure and rearfoot motion are different to a flat-footed person as it does to a nomal-footed person, due to their structural and functional difference. This study used Fifty Flat-Footed Person (FF, arch height 1.57±0.37cm，55.6±8.69㎏) and fifty Normal-Footed Person (NF, arch height 2.76±0.17cm，54.3±6.2㎏) as subjects. The foot kinetics and rearfoot motion in both walking (1.33m/s) and running (2.66m/s) were measured by EMED-Pedar System and PEAK analysis system. All the data were analyzed by one-way ANOVA（α=0.05）, The results were as fellow：1) In walking, the foot kinetics of FF’s midfoot area was several times larger than the NF. The FF’s rearfoot motion was larger than the NF. 2)In running, in metatarsal region and forefoot the FF pressure would move to outside whereas the NF move to inside. 3) In both walking and running, the midfoot area were different significantly in different velocity, but no difference for the rearfoot motion. The FF in easier to get fatigued and pain because of their gait unstable.4)In both walking and running, the rearfoot motion of NF was diffeent.

Full textAbstract:
碩士<br>大同大學<br>工業設計學系(所)<br>96<br>In recent years, ballroom dancing has emerged from a social activity to become a dance competition and a daily physical sport participated in by many with increasing popularity. However, just like any other regular sport, incidents such as foot discomfort and injuries are not uncommon among ballroom dancers. In this research, a field investigation comprised of a survey and foot image scanning for subjects was conducted. Out of the 29 subjects who completed the survey, 22 took part in a footprint scanning process. From the results of the investigation, we were able to identify the causes that lead to foot discomfort and poor balance for dancers: (1) wearing dance shoes or shoes with heels; (2) flat foot arches; (3) specific dance routines such as the quick tempo Latin or the lively Cha-cha-cha. Findings of the investigation showed that a substantial number of ballroom dancers wearing dance shoes or shoes with heels suffer from foot discomfort, fatigue and poor balance. In addition, most of the subjects (who practice ballroom dancing) in fact have flat foot arches (62.1%). Subjects with flat feet (regardless of severity of the condition) have responded that they have experienced noticeable foot discomfort and fatigue while practicing ballroom dancing.
Based on the content of literatures referred for the purpose of this research, the results of the field investigation and the data from subjects’ foot image scanning, two types of arch support were designed and developed using EVA materials with a hardness of 30 specially designed for ballroom dancers with varying degree of flat feet.
20 subjects were screened and selected from the field investigation to participate in the post-test experiment. 9 subjects were placed in the experimental group and asked to wear identical dance shoes for a week while dancing. These subjects were then asked to complete a questionnaire. At the same time, subjects were given the experimental arch support we have developed in this research according to the severity of their flat feet. They were asked to complete another questionnaire after two weeks of usage. The 11 subjects in the compare group were asked to wear their own shoes (which they were used to wearing) while dancing during the period of the experiment before completing the two-stage questionnaire on their experience of foot discomfort. Results from the analyses of these questionnaires indicated that the arch support developed for the research alleviated painful sensations for flat feet dancers by 39.63%, improved their balance by 46.30% and reduced foot fatigue by 39.37%. However, subjects have also brought up the point that it took a significant period of time before they become accustomed to using the arch support due to comfort factors. In other words, manufacturers of dance shoes or assisting devices could improve upon their products in the areas of material application, surface area and thickness design.

碩士<br>國立臺中教育大學<br>幼兒教育學系早期療育碩士班<br>100<br>The problem of flatfoot is often seen in pre-school children. The children with developmental delay have the similar deficit and more severe. Researches of flatfoot in the children with developmental delay is less than normal children. Therefore, the main topic of this study is to explore related factors of the flatfoot and the effect of flatfoot on the functional activities of lower extremity.
The participants consisted of 88 children with age ranging from 4 years to 6 years. The tools use in this research are Foot-spirit、Beighton score and Movement ABC-2. 50 participants are suitable in this study. Boys are 28 (56%), gairs are 22 (44%). They are assigned to two groups: servere group (n=25) and mid to moderate group (n=25). The methods of statistical analysis include (1) independent sample t-test for mean difference to compare the joint laxity , ankle muscle strength , and the lower limb functional activities ability (one foot standing ; jump grid; toe walking along straight line) among two groups of different flatfoot severity. (2) the Pearson correlation test to test of flatfoot severity and joint laxity, ankle muscle strength, and lower extremity functional activities.
The results are as follows : 1.there are moderate relation between their joint laxity and lower extremity muscle strength with flatfoot severity. 2.The lower limb functional activities in “ severe flatfoot of group “of the motor development delay children is significantly worse than mild to moderate group. Therefore, these results suggest that the strengthening the lower extremity muscle strength, especially in the ankle plantarflexor and dorsiflexor, could improve the arch collapse for children with developmental delay and flatfoot problem in clinical setting.

Title: Use of orthopaedic insoles in childhood Supervisor: PhDr. Tereza Nováková, PhD. Problem definition: The importance of the longitudinal arch is one of the most discussed topics in orthopaedics. Similarly important is the indication of orthopaedic insoles for flat feet especially in children. Experts have different opinions about what age insoles should be prescribed, and if their use is beneficial. So far, a clearly defined boundary has not been established between real pathology and a flexible flat foot formed on the basis of hypermobility which is to some extent physiological in childhood. Aim: To compare the plantograms of groups of six-year-old children with diagnosed pes planus/planovalgus before and after six month (or more) use of, individually prepared, insoles. To compare the results with a group of children that did not have insoles prescribed and on this basis to judge whether there was change (improvement) that can be proven with the use of a plantogram. Method: Two groups of six-year-old subjects were formed. The experimental group: subjects with prescribed orthopaedic insoles, and the control group: subjects that were not prescribed orthopaedic insoles. Plantograms were evaluated with the help of the Chippaux-Šmiřák index method. Conclusion: The results indicate a partial...

Author: Bc. Kateřina Kellerová Title: Foot Arch in Childhood Problem definition: The most often diagnosis related to the foot arch in childhood is definitely flexible flat foot also called pes planovalgus. Because of that this thesis will be mostly oriented on this diagnosis. There are many articles about flexible flat foot and many studies were oriented on this problem. The informations about etiology, influencing factors or therapy are sometimes discordant in different articles. But almost all of them contain one same statement which says that the prevalence of this diagnosis is decreasing as the foot arch is changing during the child's growth. It means in older children there is not flexible flat foot so often as in the younger ones. But there is no detailed description of the dynamics of these changes of the foot arch in childhood. Aim of this thesis: The aim of this thesis is to find out the development of the foot arch in children of pre-school age. In other words to run the survey to find out the changes of the foot arch in children of pre-school age which occurs in six months. Method: The survey contains anamnesis questionnare for parents and also these examinations: footprints, examination of joint laxity, mobility of hip joint, position of knee, patellae and heel, Jack's test, posibility...

Title: The effect of kinesiotaping for flat foot correction in association with selected parameters of gait for a specific group of people Objectives: The primary objective of this experiment was to determine whether and to what extent the application of kinesio tape to flat foot (utilising a functional correction technique) can influence the positioning of the specific segments of the body and thereby implement change to walking stereotype. Methods: Biomechanical measurement of the gait of eleven specifically selected people with the clinical symptoms of flat foot was implemented. First we recorded measurements prior to the intervention and then again, subsequent to the application of kinesio tape for a defined period. Probands retained the tape in place for the following four days and then the measuring was repeated both prior and subsequent to the removal of the tape. To determine any potential changes to the statics, initially the measuring of the postural stability prior to the intervention was first implemented in the experiment and subsequently again when the kinesio tape was removed after it had been worn for four days. This measurement was carried out using the Footscan apparatus (RSscan International, Belgium) and any potential differences in six variant modes of posture were determined....

Title: The effect of sensomotoric stimulation on flat foot of children Introduction: Flat foot is a common health problem in childhood. Its development is related to congenital or acquired dysfunction of the plantar vault. There is no single opinion on the criteria for diagnosis and therapy forms. The aftereffects and health risks of flat foot are often neglected. The therapy form of sensomotoric stimulation, including balance exercises and walking barefoot over different surfaces, could be an appropriate part of the physical activities and games for children in kindergarten. Objectives: The main objective of this thesis was to compare foot prints of a group of children from one kindergarten class before and after six months of sensomotoric stimulation by three different methods (the Chippaux-Šmiřák method, the Godunov-Sztriter method and the Mayer method.). The second objective was to determine at what age category will be the highest prevalence of flat feet and also at what age group is the biggest improvement of the foot arch. The third objective was to compare each other method and determine whether the results will match. Hypothesis 1: After six months of sensomotoric stimulation of the feet of children occurs in the majority of feet of probands the improvement of the longitudinal foot arch...

Title Atypical Pronation of the Sub-Talar Joint: Its Implications on the Lower Limb Background Atypical pronation of the sub-talar joint, or overpronation of the foot, as it is more commonly known, is a current subtopic in foot and lower limb-related biomechanical issues. Typical pronation is a tri-planar movement that involves eversion of the hindfoot, combined with abduction and dorsiflexion of the forefoot. Atypical pronation is recognized when this motion is excessive, and may be determined by the extent and duration to which this occurs according to the rhythmic timing during the gait pattern. It is a mechanical problem of the foot that primarily results from a subluxation or shift of the sub-talar joint and bones of the mid- and hind-foot. As a common finding in the general population, especially in those with flexible flat feet, atypical pronation may result chronically in a displacement of the bones and joints of the lower limb. Research has stated that excessive pronation of the ankle-foot complex may cause change in position of certain bones in the lower limb. This is believed to occur through an interaction between foot and pelvis through a kinetic chain mechanism. Furthermore, it has been stated that atypical pronation may affect weight transfer of the lower limb during gait that may...

Full textAbstract:
The purpose of the research was to investigate the potential for converting agricultural by-products, barley hull and flaxseed hull as well as their co-extract, into value-added functional food ingredients.
Four varieties of barley hull and 3 types of flaxseed hull were hydrolyzed in calcium hydroxide solution in a water bath at 70°C for 4 hrs with shaking. The major phenolic compounds in barley hull, flaxseed hull and their co-extracts were identified by reversed phase high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) coupled with photodiode array detection (PAD) and quadrupole - time of flight (Q-TOF) mass spectrometry (LC-MS). Ferulic acid, p-coumaric acid, vanillic acid and vanillin, and four ferulate dehydrodimers were detected in barley hull and their co-extracts. Quantitative analysis was conducted on the phenolic acids using the available standards. However, the phenolic compounds in flaxseed were found to be distinct from that of barley hull. Large amounts of secoisolariciresinol diglucoside (SDG), ferulic acid glucoside (FeAG), p-coumaric acid glucoside (CouAG) were found in flaxseed hull with minor content of caffeic acid glucoside (CAG) and flavonoids herbacitin glucoside (HDG), whereas the phytochemical profile of the co-extract was enriched by combining major phenolic compounds from both barley hull and flaxseed hull.The antioxidant activity of barley hull, flaxseed hull as well as their co-extract was evaluated using DPPH radical scavenging assay while total phenolic content was measured using the Folin-Ciocalteau method. After screening using chemical assays, the representative barley hull extract, flaxseed hull extract as well as their co-extract were tested for their intracellular antioxidant activity and the antiproliferative activity in PC-3 human prostate cancer cells. Both chemical assays and the cell culture assays indicated that barley and flaxseed hull had strong antioxidant activity and antiproliferative activity. Although the co-extract exhibited the strong antioxidant activity in the chemicals assay, it behaved differently in the cell culture assay, which may be attributed to the chemical and biological properties of the major phenolics in the co-extract.Following evaluation of the antioxidant activity and anticancer effect of barley hull extract, flaxseed hull extract as well as their co-extract, each type of extract was incorporated into Chinese steamed bread (CSB). The phytochemical profile of CSB was enriched by incorporating barley hull extract, flaxseed hull extract as well as their co-extract, which resulted in a significant enhancement in the antioxidant activity evaluated by DPPH and ORAC.
Therefore, barley hull, flaxseed hull and their co-extract are suggested as promising sources of functional food ingredients.

Full textAbstract:
In the last years, plasmid DNA has been used as a vector for gene therapy and DNA vaccines, and for this reason, the ability to produce large quantities of plasmid DNA is important concerning the DNA vaccines production process, on an industrial scale. Thus, the objective of this research was to study the metabolism and proteome of Escherichia coli (strain VH35) during the pcDNA- FLAG-p53 biosynthesis using as alternative media agro–food industry compounds, as cheese whey, corn steep liquor and yeast extract.
Combining these alternative compounds as a growth medium, and using strain VH35 as a host, the optimization of plasmid DNA production was performed in terms of yield and quality. After this optimization, it was analyzed the consumption of sugars in the fermentation medium overtime, and the proteome changes that occur due to metabolic adaptations.
The developed work suggests that strain VH35 uses agro-food media as an energy source, thus consuming the lactose present in the agro-food medium, since it does not contain PTS–sugars. Due to the fact that this alteration can lead to proteome modifications in the cell, proteomic analysis was performed using two-dimensional electrophoresis, which showed that the protein composition of strain VH35 was different among the compared growth mediums. Lastly, these proteome changes were analyzed by MALDI-TOF/TOF, and it was possible to identify differentially expressed proteins, such as anthranilate synthase component 1, chaperone protein ClpB, deoxyribose-phosphate aldolase, that are related principally to metabolic pathways and nucleotides synthesis.<br>Nos últimos anos, o DNA plasmídico tem sido usado como um vetor em terapia génica e em vacinas de DNA, e por essa razão, a capacidade de produzir grandes quantidades de plasmídeo é importante no que diz respeito ao processo de produção de vacinas de DNA, em larga escala. Assim, o objetivo deste trabalho foi o estudo metabólico e proteómico da Escherichia coli (estirpe VH35) durante a síntese de pcDNA-FLAG-p53, usando como meio de fermentação compostos alternativos provenientes da indústria agro–alimentar, como o soro de queijo, o “corn steep licor” e o extrato de levedura.
Combinando estes compostos alternativos como meio de crescimento, e usando a estirpe VH35 como hospedeiro, procedeu-se então à otimização da produção de DNA plasmídeo, em termos de rendimento e qualidade. Após essa otimização, analisou-se o consumo de açúcares no meio de fermentação ao longo do tempo, e as alterações proteómicas que ocorrem devido a adaptações metabólicas.
O trabalho desencolvido sugere que a estirpe VH35 utiliza meios agro-alimentares como fonte de energia, consumindo assim a lactose presente no meio, uma vez que estes meios não possuem açúcares PTS (fosfoenolpiruvato). Devido ao facto desta alteração poder levar a modificações no proteoma da célula, foi feita uma análise proteómica por eletroforese bidimensional, que revelou variações no proteoma da célula quando comparado com diferentes meios de crescimento. Por fim, essas variações proteómicas foram analisadas por MALDI-TOF/TOF, e foi possível identificar proteínas diferencialmente expressas, como por exemplo a proteína MreB, a desoxirribose fosfato – aldolase, chaperonina ClpB,as quais se encontram principalmente relacionadas com o metabolismo e a síntese de nucleótidos.

Full textAbstract:
There is growing public concern about the high proportion of saturated fatty acids in milk fat; however, feed intake, energy partitioning toward milk synthesis, and milk fat concentrations can decrease when cows are fed high concentrations of unsaturated lipids. The objective of this study was to identify the optimal rate for feeding OmegaBoostTM (a flaxseed supplement that was processed using a proprietary technique by Double Pass LLC, Tualatin, OR) to dairy cows. The central hypothesis was that supplementation with OmegaBoost will decrease the proportion of saturated fatty acids in milk fat in a dose dependent manner. Using a latin-square design, 10 Holstein cows in mid to late lactation were fed for two-week periods 0, 2, 4, or 6 lbs/d of OmegaBoost or 4lbs/d ground flax as top dressing to their total mixed ration. Feed intake, body weight, activity and resting time, milk production and milk composition were measured daily. At the end of each two-week period, milk and serum samples were taken and analyzed for fatty acid composition using gas chromatography. In addition, fresh Mozzarella cheese and butter was manufactured and tested to determine the fatty acid composition and the effects of flaxseed supplementation on texture. Feeding OmegaBoost at 2, 4, and 6 lbs/d linearly decreased the proportion of saturated fatty acids in milk by 6, 15, and 18%, respectively, and linearly increased the proportion of mono-unsaturated fatty acids (14, 32, and 35%), poly-unsaturated fatty acids (16, 49, and 82%), and α-linolenic acid (26,
52, and 70%). Similar changes in fatty acid composition were observed in butter and
cheese samples, resulting in butter that was less hard and adhesive at refrigeration
temperature in response to feeding cows increasing concentrations of OmegaBoost. Feed
intake, body weight, serum metabolite concentrations, milk production and composition,
and butter and cheese yield were not significantly affected by feeding processed flaxseed.
Therefore, feeding 4 or 6 lbs/d of OmegaBoost to dairy cows is effective in improving the
nutritional and textural profile of dairy products without negatively affecting feed intake,
milk production, or weight gain.<br>Graduation date: 2012
