背景：确凿的证据支持熟练掌握基本运动技能(FMS)在促进体力活动和对抗肥胖方面的重要性。在患有唐氏综合症(DS)的儿童中，FMS发育延迟，这被认为与平衡缺陷有关。因此，本研究探讨了DS儿童FMS熟练程度和平衡能力之间的关系，旨在为解决FMS延迟的方案提供证据。方法参与者包括20名DS儿童(7.1+/-2.9岁)和一组年龄匹配的典型发育儿童(7.2+/-52.5岁)。在研究的第一部分，使用粗大运动发育测验-2对儿童的FMS(即运动和物体控制)能力进行了测试。用测力平台测量压力中心平均速度(Av；mm/s)、路径长度(Mm)、内侧向标准差(Mm)和前后向标准差(Mm)来评价平衡能力。在研究的第二部分，患有DS的儿童参加了为期5周的FMS培训。培训后测试FMS的熟练程度和平衡能力，并与培训前的分数进行比较。结果DS儿童的FMS水平与压力中心参数有关，而发育正常儿童的FMS水平与压力中心参数无关。在控制了年龄因素后，AV对运动能力有显著的预测作用(R2=0.61，P
Background Conclusive evidence supports the importance of fundamental movement skills (FMS) proficiency in promoting physical activity and countering obesity. In children with Down Syndrome (DS), FMS development is delayed, which has been suggested to be associated with balance deficits. This study therefore examined the relationship between FMS proficiency and balance ability in children with DS, with the aim of contributing evidence to programmes that address FMS delay.Methods Participants consisted of 20 children with DS (7.1 +/- 2.9 years old) and an age-matched control group of children with typical development (7.2 +/- 52.5 years). In the first part of the study, FMS (i.e. locomotor and object control) proficiency of the children was tested using the Test of Gross Motor Development-2. Balance ability was assessed using a force platform to measure centre of pressure average velocity (AV; mm/sec), path length (mm), medio-lateral standard deviation (mm) and antero-posterior standard deviation (mm). In the second part of the study, children with DS participated in 5 weeks of FMS training. FMS proficiency and balance ability were tested post-training and compared to pre-training scores. Verbal and visuo-spatial short-term memory capacities were measured at pre-training to verify the role of working memory in skill learning.Results FMS proficiency was associated with centre of pressure parameters in children with DS but not in children with typical development. After controlling for age, AV was found to predict significant variance in locomotor (R-2=0.61, P
