    But is 1.38 degrees clinically significant???
     
  3. anyone know of any studies which link increased Transverse plane motion of the tibia to injury ?

    Seems a rather large sweeping statement to me.

    This one show a group with history of TA pain having less external rotation moments but internal the same as a control group

    Tibial rotation is linked with STJ pronation and abduction of the forefoot on the rearfoot. I don't care so much about the total amount of motion as compared to the acceleration of motion. If a motion control shoe shifted the center of pressure more medially, there would be a smaller pronation moment from the ground and you would expect a slower pronation acceleration during the contact phase. These results could be evidence for a decrease in pronation moment from the ground. A further study would be to look at internal leg rotation velocities in posterior tibial dysfunction with and without motion control shoes.
