Effect of 5-day dry immersion on the human foot morphology evaluated by computer plantography and soft tissues stiffness measuring
Abstract 16 participants have been subjected to Dry Immersion model (DI) for 5 days. DI reproduces the space flight factors such as lack of support, mechanical and axial unloading, physical inactivity, elimination of vertical vascular gradient. Long-term bed rest is also associated with similar fact...
