    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    Infant plantar responses change from extensor to flexor. Nutritional supplements advanced this change in urban infants, while preterm infants showed delays.

    Area of Science:

    • Developmental Pediatrics
    • Neuroscience

    Background:

    • The plantar response in infants is a key neurological indicator.
    • Understanding typical development is crucial for identifying deviations.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate the developmental trajectory of the plantar response in infants.
    • To compare plantar response development between urban and rural infants.
    • To assess the impact of nutritional supplements and prematurity on this development.

    Main Methods:

    • Longitudinal and cross-sectional studies were conducted on full-term urban and rural infants.
    • Plantar responses were observed and categorized as extensor or flexor.
    • Infant groups included those receiving nutritional supplements and preterm infants.

    Related Experiment Videos

    Main Results:

    • Full-term infants typically shift from extensor to flexor plantar response by the second half of infancy.
    • Urban infants receiving nutritional supplements showed a 4-week advancement in this developmental milestone compared to rural infants.
    • Preterm infants exhibited a delayed change-over of plantar response.
    • Identical twins displayed plantar responses similar to full-term urban infants.

    Conclusions:

    • Nutritional supplementation appears to accelerate plantar response maturation in infants.
    • Prematurity is associated with a delay in plantar response development.
    • Environmental and nutritional factors significantly influence early neurological development indicators.
