U.S., Dec. 20 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07294014) titled 'Investigation of Medial Longitudinal Arch and Foot Function in Patients With Lipedema' on Dec. 07.
Brief Summary: Lipedema is a chronic adipose tissue disorder that commonly leads to joint laxity, hypermobility, and functional limitations, yet its impact on foot morphology has not been systematically examined. This case-control study aims to investigate whether patients with lipedema exhibit a higher prevalence of generalized joint hypermobility and foot structural abnormalities-specifically pes planus-compared with age- and BMI-matched controls. Using radiographic measurements (Meary angle and calcaneal inclination angle), clinical...
