About this study
Official title: Evaluation of the Relationship Between Foot Biomechanics and Lower Extremity Muscle Mechanics, Strength and Balance
This study is designed to investigate the relationship between foot biomechanics, balance, lower extremity muscle mechanical properties, and vertical jump in young adults. The aim is to highlight the correlations between foot biomechanics and the other parameters, as well as potential outcomes (if any).
Read the detailed description
This study is designed to investigate the relationship between foot biomechanics, balance, lower extremity muscle mechanical properties, and vertical jump in young adults. The independent variables of the study include participants' age, height, weight, calcaneotibial angle, navicular drop test, foot lengths, smoking/alcohol habits, socioeconomic status, and exercise habits. The dependent variables are the results from the Korebalance balance test, Flamingo balance test, vertical jump test, and Myoton-Pro assessment. The study aims to highlight the correlations between foot biomechanics and the other parameters, as well as potential outcomes.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
An observational study of Balance and Lower Extremity, run by Bandırma Onyedi Eylül University at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 4 Mar 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye). Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
Are results available for this study?
This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
Contact Melis Destan (+90 535 078 98 03, melisdestann@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
muscle mechanics (time frame: Single assessment at baseline). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 4 Mar 2025.
