    Metatarsal Length does not Correlate with Maximal Peak Pressure and Maximal Force.

  5. Why do researchers take such leaps from their research data when their study did not measure "shortening of a symptomatic ray" (which I assume to mean surgical shortening)? Their data measured length versus pressure of the ray, not changes in pressure with surgical shortening of the metatarsal ray.

    My lecture topic for a recent conference was supposed to be something like "the clinical implications of recent biomechanical research" ... to my embarrasment I could find nothing in the last few yrs that was worthy of talking about. Like the above, I found plenty of good research where researchers stretched what clinical implications they think their research has .... the problem is that no clinician would agree with them.

    If I recall correctly one of these two papers did show a correlation between metatarsal length and plantar pressure.
