研究背景站立时的姿势摆动反映了感觉统合功能的强弱。静态平衡和步态参数之间的关系，在学龄前儿童是必不可少的了解步态功能的组成部分是链接到的感觉统合function.Research QuestionWe的目的是澄清之间的关系静态平衡和步态的儿童，年龄在2-6岁，典型的developmentMethodsA共105名儿童（48名女孩，57名男孩）参加了这项研究。静态平衡参数计算使用的位置在中心的压力（COP），而站（COP长度，速度和摇摆面积）。以步长、步宽、站立时间、步频、步长变异系数和站立时间变异系数作为步态变异性的时空参数进行分析。皮尔森相关系数估计，探讨年龄和静态平衡或步态参数之间的关系。结果年龄与静态平衡参数、步态参数之间存在中等程度的相关性，偏相关分析显示步态变异性参数与静态平衡参数之间存在相关性。空间和时间的步态参数和静态平衡parameters.SignificanceAmong的步态参数，被认为是在儿童早期发展，步态变异性与COP摇摆，而站着，而步长随着年龄的增长是独立的任何静态平衡参数之间没有关系。在步态的空间、时间和变异性参数中，只有步态的变异性可能与感觉统合功能的发展有关。
BackgroundPostural sway while standing reflects the degree of sensory integration function. The relationship between static balance and gait parameters in preschool children is essential for understanding which component of gait function is linked to the sensory integration function.Research questionWe aimed to clarify the relationship between static balance and gait in children, aged 2–6 years, with typical developmentMethodsA total of 105 children (48 girls, 57 boys) participated in this study. Static balance parameters were computed using positions at the center of pressure (COP) while standing (COP length, velocity, and sway area). Spatiotemporal parameters during gait were analyzed for stride length, step width, stance time, cadence, coefficient of variation (CV) of step length, and CV of stance time as gait variability. Pearson correlation coefficients were estimated to explore the relationship between age and static balance or gait parameters. Partial correlation analysis controlling for age was also performed to examine the relationship between static balance and gait parameters.ResultsA moderate association between age and static balance parameters and between age and gait parameters was found. Partial correlation analysis revealed that the variability parameters of gait were associated with the static balance parameters. No relationship was found between both spatial and temporal gait parameters and static balance parameters.SignificanceAmong the gait parameters that are considered to develop in early childhood, gait variability was associated with COP sway while standing, whereas stride length with increasing age was independent of any static balance parameters. Of the spatial, temporal, and variability parameters of gait, only gait variability maybe associated with the development of sensory integration function.
