Curve Analysis of Foot Coupling Kinematics in Runners with Plantar Heel Pain During Running Gait by Hanieh Pazhooman, Robin L. Pomeroy, Mohammed S. Alamri, Zahra Mollaei, Stephen C. Cobb

“…A seven-segment foot model that defined six functional articulations (rearfoot, medial and lateral midfoot, medial and lateral forefoot, first metatarsophalangeal) was used to quantify foot kinematics, vector coding was used to calculate joint coupling between adjacent foot segments, and SPM was used to analyze joint stance phase coupling angles. (3) Results: There were statistically significant differences in rearfoot frontal plane–medial midfoot frontal plane joint coupling between runners with and without PHP from 69 to 70% stance phase (mean difference = 39.41°) and at 76% stance (mean difference = 47.89°). …”
