Effects of simulated crouch gait on foot kinematics and kinetics in healthy children

Highlights ► Significant differences between normal and artificial crouch gait during stance phase. ► Hindfoot compensation: dorsiflexion increased, eversion, external rotation. ► Forefoot compensation: dorsiflexion, adduction increased, supination decreased. ► Maximum plantarflexion moment decrease...
