Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This study aims to explore the relationship between children's physical fitness and flatfoot. Specifically, it is designed to determine whether fitness levels are linked to the incidence and severity of flatfoot and to explore other possible factors, including genetics, exercise behavior, and body weight.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This study aims to examine the relationship between children's physical fitness and flatfoot. We will recruit a sample of children across different ages, genders, and fitness levels. Physical fitness will be assessed using standardized tests, including body composition, cardiorespiratory endurance, muscle strength, and flexibility. Foot structure and function will be evaluated through arch index and plantar pressure analysis to determine the presence and severity of flatfoot. Background information, such as age, gender, height, weight, exercise habits, and family history, will also be collected.
