| Abstract: |
Highlights: [•] Differences in gait characteristics between children and adolescents with cerebral palsy and typical developing children may be more related to balance than to progression. [•] The balance problems increase with increasing gross motor impairment and with increasing speed. [•] Children with CP are less regular between strides than typical developing children.
