目的探讨儿童和成人脑瘫（CP）大运动功能和日常生活能力（ADL）与躯干和下肢肌肉质量的关系。方法选取32例小儿及成人CP患者，采用超声显像仪测量躯干及下肢肌肉厚度。结果逐步回归分析显示，胸竖脊肌厚度是影响大肌肉运动功能的重要独立因素。逐步回归分析也显示腹直肌和股外侧肌的厚度是ADL的重要独立因素。结论小儿和成人CP患者大运动功能下降与胸竖脊肌质量下降有关，ADL下降与腹直肌和股外侧肌质量下降有关。
PurposeWe examined the association of gross motor function and activities of daily living (ADL) with muscle mass of the trunk and lower extremity muscles in children and adults with cerebral palsy (CP).MethodsThe subjects were 32 children and adults with CP. Muscle thickness of the trunk and lower extremity muscles was measured using an ultrasound imaging device.ResultsStepwise regression analysis revealed that the thoracic erector spinae muscle thickness was a significant and independent factor of gross motor function. Stepwise regression analysis also showed that the thickness of the rectus abdominis and vastus lateralis muscles were significant and independent factors of ADL.ConclusionsOur findings suggest that declined gross motor function is associated with decreased thoracic erector spinae muscle mass in children and adults with CP. The results also indicate that declined ADL is associated with decreased muscle mass of the rectus abdominis and vastus lateralis muscles.
