Genetic Factors Associated with Toe Walking in Children

Вопросы современной педиатрии, 2020
The article describes genetic factors associated with toe walking in children. Association of gait abnormality with variants in genes listed below is shown: PMP22 (peripheral myelin protein 22), EGR2 (early growth response protein 2), AIFM1 (apoptosis ...

Accelerated Split‐Belt Gait Adaptation in Patients with Functional Tremor: Clues to a Generalized Precipitating Trait?

Movement Disorders, Volume 41, Issue 7, Page 1856-1862, July 2026.
Abstract Background Functional neurological disorders (FNDs) are common, disabling conditions that are genuinely experienced and arise from functional rather than structural abnormalities. Although theoretical frameworks implicate aberrant integration of prior expectations and sensory input, empirical evidence is limited, and it remains unclear whether

Selective percutaneous myofasciotomy in persistent toe-walking: Anatomical rationale and surgical technique

Surgery Open Science
Persistent toe-walking is a gait abnormality characterized by forefoot initial contact and reduced or absent heel strike beyond early childhood. Although often regarded as a transient developmental variant, persistence of this pattern may lead to ...

Toe walking: A regional analysis of TTN variants between c.10,000 and c.99,999 in a cohort of children

Global Medical Genetics
Background: Persistent toe walking is traditionally considered idiopathic when no neurological or orthopedic cause is identified. Emerging evidence suggests genetic contributors, including TTN, but genotype–phenotype relationships remain poorly ...

Physical activity and quality of life in children with idiopathic toe walking: a cross sectional study

BMC Pediatrics, 2022
Objectives To determine if children with idiopathic toe walking (ITW) reach Australian 24-hour movement guidelines. Additional objectives were to identify any factors associated with moderate to vigorous physical activity time of children with ITW ...

Pediatric toe-walking cohort with heterozygous SBF1 variants: A phenotypic description

Global Medical Genetics
Purpose: Persistent toe walking is frequently labeled idiopathic; however, targeted genetic testing in selected cohorts can identify variants in genes implicated in neuromuscular disease.

Clinical and regional distribution of TTN variants in toe walking: A descriptive cohort study

Global Medical Genetics
Background: The TTN gene encodes titin, a key structural protein of the sarcomere. Variants in TTN are frequently identified in genetic testing, but their clinical interpretation remains challenging due to their high prevalence in the general population ...

Is percutaneous Achilles tendon lengthening safe and effective for older children with idiopathic toe walking?

Journal of the Pediatric Orthopaedic Society of North America
: Background: Treatment of older patients with idiopathic toe walking (ITW) can be challenging. Percutaneous Achilles tendon lengthening (pTAL) restores a normal gait pattern for younger children with ITW, but outcomes for older children are unclear ...

Tackling Anxiety‐ and Stress‐Related Freezing of Gait in People With Parkinson's Disease (TACKLING‐FOG): Study Protocol for a Randomized Controlled Trial

European Journal of Neuroscience, Volume 63, Issue 12, June 2026.
Participants undergo baseline assessment followed by randomization to either the intervention or a waitlist control condition. The intervention group receives four sessions immediately, while the waitlist group enters a 4‐week waiting period. Post‐intervention assessment is conducted in both groups, after which the waitlist group crosses over to ...
