Overview of the gait features of the mildly affected gait pattern (in blue), the tiptoeing gait pattern (in yellow) and the flexion gait pattern (in red) in the sagittal plane (a) and the coronal and transversal planes (b). The symbols (arrows, angles, lines) illustrate the gait deviations. Their thickness represents the severity of the gait deviation, where thicker symbols indicate increased severity. The black color represents an increase in the respective angle, while the orange color represents a decrease in the respective angle. The red angle illustrates the presence of a midfoot break. Abbreviations in alphabetic order: GC = gait cycle; Ext = external; Int = Internal.
