Herein there is no intent to insult or injure rather, this report is anĮndeavor to better understand human beings. The proposed mutant gene or gene pool playingĪ role in human quadrupedality may also be responsible for human bipedality at the same time. In understanding the mechanisms underlying the transition from quadripedality to bipedality during human evolution. Gait is an ancestral trait, individuals with the UTS, exhibiting a manifestation of reverse evolution in humans, may be considered an experiment of nature, useful It is suggested that the inability to walk upright in those affected with the UTS may beīest explained by a disturbance in lateral-balance mechanisms,without being related to the cerebello-vestibular system.An interruption of locomotor development during the transition from quadripedality to bipedality may result in habitual walking on all four extremities and is normal in some children. It is emphasized that there are important differences between the UTS and the disequilibrium syndrome. Another male used two walking styles: quadripedal and toe-walking. ![]() One male exhibited three walking patternsĪt the same time: quadripedal, tiptoe, and scissor walking. The males with respect to language skills and walking, suggesting an association between walking and speaking abilities. The males (n = 4) could understand simple questions and commands, but answered questions with only one or two sounds. The subjects could not name objects or their close relatives. Barany’s test suggested normal vestibular The height and head circumference of those affected were within normal ranges. ![]() The inferior portions of the cerebellum and vermis wereĪbsent as evidenced by MRI and CT scans. Marriages suggested that theUTS may be an autosomal recessive disorder, similar to previously described cases. All of the individuals had mental impairments and walked on all four extremities. A large family with six individuals exhibiting the Unertan syndrome (UTS)was identified residing in southern Turkey.
