Literature studies regarding neurological, vestibular, cognitive, amputation, or post\u2010surgical conditions were excluded.

Heterogeneity of methods and data did not allow for statistical comparison. Themes extracted from sources were types of intrinsic foot strengthening interventions and parameters; outcomes on falls, balance, functional mobility; and subjective reports regarding functional mobility.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Evidence reviewed was of fair quality. IFMS interventions contributed to improvements in strength, balance, mobility, and possibly reduced fall risk. There was little effect on gait. Subjective reports indicate a possible mechanism for improved mobility may be from increased proprioception and sensation.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1111\/jgs.17541","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,10,30]],"date-time":"2021-10-30T07:44:13Z","timestamp":1635579853000},"page":"531-540","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":25,"title":["The effects of intrinsic foot muscle strengthening on functional mobility in older adults: A systematic review"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"70","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4617-1361","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Erin E.","family":"Futrell","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Springfield College  Springfield Massachusetts USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Dawn","family":"Roberts","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Springfield College  Springfield Massachusetts USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Eric","family":"Toole","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Springfield College  Springfield Massachusetts USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,10,30]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_10_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/gerona\/61.8.866"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.clinbiomech.2009.08.011"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.apmr.2010.09.024"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_5_1","unstructured":"Merck & Co.
