Biomechanical strategies implemented to compensate for mild leg length discrepancy during gait

Although mild leg length discrepancy is related to lower limb injuries, there is no consensus regarding its effects on the biomechanics of the lower limbs during gait. Biomechanical data of 19 healthy participants were collected while they walked under different conditions as described: (1) control condition — wearing flat thick sandals; (2) short limb condition.
