A Matched-Pair Analysis of Gross Motor Skills of 3- to 5-Year-Old Children With and Without a Chronic Physical Illness.

The purpose of this study was to compare the gross motor skills of children with a chronic physical illness with those of their healthy peers. Data for children with a chronic physical illness come from the Multimorbidity in Children and Youth Across the Life Course study, and data from children without a physical illness come from the Health Outcomes and Physical Activity in Preschoolers study. Multimorbidity in Children and Youth Across the Life Course and Health Outcomes and Physical Activity in Preschoolers included children ages 3-5years and administered the Peabody Development Motor Scales-second edition. Participants were sex and age matched (20 male and 15 female pairs; Mage = 54.03 [9.5]mo). Gross motor skills scores were "below average" for 47% of children with a physical illness compared with 9% of children without a physical illness (P = .003). Matched-paired t tests detected significant differences in total gross motor scores (dz = -0.35), locomotor (dz = -0.31), and object control (dz = -0.39) scores, with healthy children exhibiting better motor skills, and no significant difference in stationary scores (dz = -0.19). This skill gap may increase burden on children with physical illnessand future research should assess gross motor skills longitudinally to establish whether the gap widens with age.

Relationship Between Body Mass Index and Development of Gross Motor Skills in 5-7-Year-Old Children

Background: Obesity in children and adolescents in the 21st century has become a major issue in the global health field. Previous studies showed that obese children have substantial adverse short- and long-term health consequences, including asthma, chronic low-grade systemic inflammation, diabetes, and numerous orthopedic complications. The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between body mass index (BMI) and the development of gross motor skills in 5-7-year-old children. Methods: This was a cross-sectional study conducted on children 5 - 7 years old in Bojnourd, Iran. The sampling method was multistage. A checklist containing the demographic data and BMI of participants was completed. Ulrich’s test of gross motor development (3rd edition) was also used to assess gross motor skills in children. Results: The age range of participants was 5 - 7 years. The mean ± standard deviation (SD) of the participants’ age was 6.24 ± 0.82 years. Furthermore, the participants’ mean ± SD weight was 24.8 ± 3.68 g (range: 17.5 - 32.2 g). There was a significant statistical difference in gross motor skills scores in the three groups of obese, overweight, and optimal weight (P < 0.0001). There was also a significant difference in gross motor skills scores between the two gender groups (P < 0.0001). Conclusions: Higher weight groups had lower motor skills scores. Therefore, it is necessary to adopt appropriate policies for physical activity and to reduce the prevalence of obesity and overweight in children.
