Regional Associations Between Q-Angle and Plantar Loading in Active Young Adults

This observational study aims to examine the association between Q-angle and plantar loading characteristics in physically active young adults. Q-angle is a commonly used clinical measure of lower-extremity alignment, but its relationship with regional plantar loading during gait remains unclear. Participants will undergo bilateral Q-angle assessment and plantar pressure evaluation during walking. The study will investigate whether Q-angle is associated with specific plantar loading variables across different foot regions in active young adults.
