| dc.description.abstract | During normal human gait, just after take-off, a short but distinct foot eversion helps to clear the foot from the surface, mainly during the onset of swing. Only since recently, quantitative measurements in man allow extrapolating such data to quadrupedal gait. Very recently, sophisticated technology captured foot eversion in swing just prior to touch-down in a carnivore running at full speed, which showed full toe-abduction simultaneously with full toe-extension. | - |

Flemish programme coordinator: Wim Van Petegem (KU Leuven). Local programme coordinator: Henry R. Ori. Flemish operational coordination: Roeland Janssen & Evy Verstraeten (ICOS KU Leuven). Local operational coordination: Ranoe Mangal and Anthea Rokadji. Phase I started on 1 April 2008, Phase II started on 1 April 2013. Cluster 2: Education and Research. Project 5. Education and research programme on physical therapy. Flemish project leader: Yves Vanlandewijck (KU Leuven). Local project leader: Tony C.M. Chang. The Anton De Kom Universiteit (Adekus) is located in Paramaribo, the capital of Suriname. Adekus is convinced that the IUC programme can contribute enormously to its institutional development, the strengthening of its management and research structures, and the confirmation of its role as a driving force in the Surinam society. The eventual finalization of a number of PhDs will allow the academic staff to strengthen the lecturing staff slowly replacing the foreign lecturers. | - |

| dc.description.notes | The findings are part of the University of Hasselt Scientific Contract Research Project : Foot inversion and eversion movements in stance and swing - some comparative-anatomical and functional morphological aspects (R-3500)1-01-2012 to 31-12-2013. In the lower leg of the common opossum Didelphis marsupialis, the spatium interosseum cruris between tibia and fibula widens in stance during the power stroke, reflecting external rotations of these bones, coupled to extreme inversion of the foot, which lasts until the end of push-off. Although denied in marsupials until recently the strong ligamentum astragalocalcaneum interosseum underlines the importance of our observations. From the very onset of recovery the opossum foot shows eversion. This eversion is coupled to internal rotations of both fibula and tibia in the free leg as is also reflected by the narrowing of the spatium interosseum cruris in the opossum. The precise course of m. interosseus cruris in Didelphis ursina Shaw, suggests its possible active role in this process of repositioning before and during touchdown. In man, the foot at the end of stance at push-off shows but a modest inversion which however can be exaggerated to a more extreme inversion of the foot. Then tarsal joints like Chopart's joint and sinus tarsi clearly show their joint spaces on routine radiography. Normally our ligamentum talocalcaneum interosseum restrains this widening. In normal gait, a foot landing after its recovery phase may accidentally do so in a position of inversion, risking a so-called inversion traumatism, the most common ankle sprain. Training proactively e.g. the peroneus muscles, the evertors of the foot, may prevent the incidence of such traumatisms, as suggested by a pilot-study in gymnasts. Extrapolating such methods to the disabled, e.g. in early diagnosed neuropathies, implies possibilities to train these muscles thus protecting Multiple Sclerosis patients from e.g. stumbling and falling. | - |
