| Abstract: |
Summarizes the findings of 36 studies of gait characteristics associated with the foot and ankle in inflammatory arthritis (IA). Finds that gait patterns in rheumatoid arthritis is characterized by decreased walking speed, cadence, stride length, ankle power and increased double limb support time and peak plantar pressures at the forefoot. Walking velocity was reduced in psoriatic arthritis and gout, while there were no differences in ankylosing spondylitis. No studies were found in polymyalgia rheumatica, systemic sclerosis or systemic lupus erythematosus. |
