Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting

Summary

This observational study looks at how different foot arch heights—flat, high, or normal—affect leg muscle tone, strength, and balance in healthy young adults aged 18 to 25. Participants are grouped by arch type and undergo tests for static and dynamic balance, muscle tone, and strength. The goal is to see if foot posture influences stability and movement, which could help improve injury prevention and rehabilitation strategies.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Arch Height Index (diagnostic assessment)
What this could lead to
If differences are found, it could lead to better screening and tailored exercise or shoe recommendations for people with flat or high arches to improve balance and prevent injuries.
What could go wrong
This is a small observational study, so it can only show associations, not cause and effect. Results may not apply to older adults or people with foot problems.
