I am searching for recent studies (last 5 years) done on children with
trans-tibial amputation. I am mostly interested in studies comparing
different feet, namely the SACH< Seattle, and/or Flex-walk. Measurements
could include gail analysis (kinetic & kinematic data), energy expediture
and plantar pressure data.

I have done a Medline search and have come up with many articles in
Prosthetics and Orthotics International, and I'm wondering if this is
available online. I'd also like to stay away from basic articles just
describing child amputee gait in a general sense as I have enough articles
in that area. If anyone could point to articles or people in this field of
study, that would be most helpful. Thanks.
