Combined translational and rotational perturbations of standing balance reveal contributions of reduced reciprocal inhibition to balance impairments in children with cerebral palsy

Fig 9

Center of mass feedback gains of children with cerebral palsy and typically developing children.

a) Lateral gastrocnemius. b) Tibialis Anterior. Differences between children with CP and TD children were larger for lateral gastrocnemius than for soleus and medial gastrocnemius, therefore results for lateral gastrocnemius are shown in the main figure. Figures for medial gastrocnemius and soleus can be found in Fig F in S1 Text. Upper row: balance correcting pathway gains, bottom row: antagonistic pathway gains. L1-L4: Level 1 to level 4. Boxplots in black indicate mean and interquartile ranges and dots represent individual scores. Children with cerebral palsy (CP) in orange, typically developing (TD) children in blue. Significant differences between groups are indicated with a star after Bonferroni-Holm correction. A star between brackets indicates significant effects that did not survive the Bonferroni-Holm correction.
