The effects of different accumulated pressure-time integral stimuli on plantar blood flow in people with diabetes mellitus

Abstract Background Exercise, especially weight-bearing exercise (e.g. walking), may affect plantar tissue viability due to prolonged repetitive high vertical and high shear pressure stimulus on the plantar tissue, and further induce development of diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs). This study aimed to in...
