“…Based on the results, MR seems to be a great tool to provide effective perceptual-motor training. Further evidence of its efficiency is that another study [ 53 ], with a similar slight multi-modal training protocol, but not in MR (i.e., walking while doing an upper limb motor task, a cognitive task, or both) showed no effect on the subjects’ gait. According to the authors, the protocol application duration was insufficient.…”

People with intellectual disability (ID) are often subject to motor impairments such as altered gait. As gait is a task involving motor and perceptive dimensions, perceptual-motor training is an efficient rehabilitation approach to reduce the risk of falls which grows with age. Virtual, augmented, and mixed reality are recent tools which enable interaction with 3D elements at different levels of immersion and interaction. In view of the countless possibilities that this opens, their use for therapeutic purposes is constantly increasing. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the influence a mixed reality activity could have on motor and cognitive abilities in eighteen adults with intellectual disability. For three months, once a week, they had around 20 min to pop virtual balloons with a finger using a Microsoft HoloLens2® head-mounted mixed-reality device. Motor skills were assessed through gait analysis and cognitive abilities were measured with the Montréal Cognitive Assessment. Both walking speed and cognitive score increased after training. In conclusion, this study demonstrates that mixed reality holds potential to get used for therapeutic purposes in adults with ID.

“…Note that in classifying the ASD and normal walking gait, some studies implemented statistical analysis [43,44] and machine learning (ML) [27][28][29]32] too. For instance, studies done by [15,45] utilized statistical analysis method specifically t-test, while Pearson correlation was used as reported in [2], Ancova [46], stepwise method of discriminant analysis (SWDA) [25] as well as ML methods such as Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA) [28], Neural Network (NN), Support Vector Machine (SVM) [25,32] and k-nearest neighbor (kNN) [29]. Table 6 tabulated the summary of gait classifiers used by previous researches related to ASD gait.…”

Recently, studies in autism have gained much attention. Hence, for this study, experimental methods for gait analysis in autism children done by previous researchers were reviewed prior to our proposed method. Although gait is not one of the diagnostic criteria for autism spectrum disorder (ASD), existences of motor deficits specifically abnormal gait patterns during walking could be investigated and explored further. Thus, the purpose of this study is to conduct a thorough review by previous researches related to walking gait for ASD children with specific scope defined. Here, the discussion focused on the sample sizes or subjects' database, gait analysis methods utilized, type of gait features extracted and the method used for assessment of the walking gait in ASD. At the end of this review, a new markerless based approach is proposed that will be more suitable to be used for detection of anomaly gait in children with autism specifically outside the laboratory environment. The proposed method will be based on the benchmark model of a 3D marker-based model and the proposed markerless model will be using a depth camera that will provide the three-dimensional (3D) skeleton image of the subject along with the motion sensor for data acquisition purpose.

Purpose: This study aimed to compare single- and dual-task gait parameters between children with cancer (CC) and typically developing children (TDC). Methods: The gait parameters (gait speed, cadence, and stride length) assessed by the 10-meter walking test under single- and dual-task conditions and dual-task cost (DTC) was calculated. The t-test, Mann-Whitney U, and Pearson chi-square tests were used for comparisons. Results: The comparative-descriptive study was conducted with 49 children (14 females and 35 males) with a mean age of 12.45±2.71. The study participants consisted of two groups: CC (7 girls, 13 boys) and TDC (7 girls, 22 boys). The CC group exhibited lower gait speed (p<0.001) and cadence (p<0.001) under the single-task condition. Under the cognitive dual-task condition, the CC group had lower gait speed (p<0.001) and cadence (p<0.001). Also, gait speed (p<0.001) and cadence (p<0.001) were significantly lower under the motor dual-task condition in the CC group. There was no difference between the two groups' stride lengths and dual-task cost values (p>0.05). Conclusion: Consequently, the study demonstrated that CC might have a deviation in single- and dual-task gait parameters. Assessments of single- and dual-task gait parameters in CC will contribute to the identification the rehabilitation needs.
