Electromyographic and kinematic data were collected during treadmill locomotion by normal infants and infants with cerebral palsy. Locomotor patterns of the infants with cerebral palsy were similar to those of normal infants during the stage of supported locomotion, but as they matured, some of the characteristics of the infant stepping pattern, such as synchronous muscle activity with excessive muscular co-contraction and short-latency reflexes at foot contact, were retained. The normal plantigrade features of adult gait did not develop in these children.
通过跑步机运动收集了正常婴儿和脑瘫婴儿的肌电图和运动学数据。在支撑运动阶段，脑瘫婴儿的运动模式与正常婴儿相似，但随着他们的成长，婴儿步姿的一些特征，如同步肌肉活动伴过度肌肉共同收缩以及足部接触时的短潜伏期反射，得以保留。这些儿童并未发育出成人步态正常的足底行走特征。
