Early Gross Motor Milestones in Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy. [PDF]

J Neuromuscul Dis, 2021
Background: Over the last few years there has been increasing attention to detect early signs of impairment in young Duchenne muscular dystrophy boys but less has been reported on whether the delay may also affect the very early aspects of motor development, such as gross motor milestones.

Assessment of Motor Milestones in Twins [PDF]

Twin Research and Human Genetics, 2007
AbstractThe aim of this study was to investigate the reliability of obtaining through mailed surveys maternal reports of specific major motor milestones achievement. To accomplish this aim we compared and contrasted mailed survey data and telephone interview data on a series of questions about age at which motor milestones were achieved.

Influences on Achieving Motor Milestones: A Twin–Singleton Study [PDF]

Twin Research and Human Genetics, 2006
AbstractIn order to determine if twinning impacted achievement of motor milestones the attainment of early motor milestones in twins was examined and compared to published data from singletons of the same age from the same culture and birth years. We examined the influence of twinning, sex, zygosity and birth cohort (1987–2001) on the motor development

Parkinson disease clinical subtypes: key features & clinical milestones [PDF]

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, 2020
Objectives Based on multi‐domain classification of Parkinson disease (PD) subtypes, we sought to determine the key features that best differentiate subtypes and the utility of PD subtypes to predict clinical milestones.

THE USE OF MOTOR MILESTONES TO DETERMINE RETROSPECTIVELY THE CLINICAL ONSET OF DISEASE

Journal of Paediatrics and Child Health, 1974
SYNOPSISThe technique of determining a child's age when clinical disease is first manifest is described formally. Single or selected motor milestones are used in a manner different from that encompassing general developmental testing to formulate age for diagnostic or prospective use.

Toddlers’ Fine Motor Milestone Achievement is Associated with Early Touchscreen Scrolling [PDF]

Frontiers in Psychology, 2016
Touchscreen technologies provide an intuitive and attractive source of sensory/cognitive stimulation for young children. Despite fears that usage may have a negative impact on toddlers’ cognitive development, empirical evidence is lacking.

Motor milestones, physical activity, overweight and cardiometabolic risk: from birth to adolescence [PDF]

, 2020
To prevent overweight in children, regular physical activity is important. To stimulate childhood physical activity it seems relevant to consider motor skill competence stimulation in infants. Motor milestones can be seen as benchmarks of development in where motor coordination is central and may lead to more movement opportunities to increase physical
