Center of pressure index, (area in lateral column)/(area in medial column); Coronal index, (relative impulses in medial forefoot and medial midfoot)-(relative impulses in lateral forefoot and lateral midfoot); PTI, pressure time integral; DFPI, dynamic foot pressure index [heel impulse/(heel impulse+forefoot impulse)×100].

Data are presented as mean (±standard deviation).

*Post hoc analysis, compared with baseline data, p<0.05, Post hoc analysis, compared with after 1 month data, p<0.05.
