First seen Jul 30, 2026 · Last updated Jul 31, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study measures the height of the foot arch and how much it flattens when standing in adults aged 65 and older. Researchers want to establish typical values and see whether age, gender, or body weight influence these measurements. The goal is to create a reference for identifying abnormal foot structure in older adults.
