What this Trial Is About
The goal of this observational study is to investigate the clinically convenient dynamic and static measurement parameters to identify related risk factors of developing high peak plantar pressure during walking in the type-2 diabetic patients, and then establish a predictive model to estimate the likelihood of excessive plantar pressure. The main question it aims to answer is: Which clinical measurements may be used as the predictors that increased peak plantar pressure in the type-2 diabetic patients? Participants taking the examinations will understand their own clinally meaningful measurements related to their plantar pressure during walking. Further thorough analysis will be employed to develop a predictive model, aiming to provide potential improvement strategies for preventing diabetic foot ulcers in the future.
