"8982","Human quadrupedalism is not an epiphenomenon caused  by neurodevelopmental malformation and ataxia","Two cases with quadrupedal locomotion (QL) were presented. In both cases, cognitive and psychiatric functions were normal and, no neurological deficits were observed, except for a sequel paralysis of left leg in Case 2. It was suggested that human QL (1) should not be considered as an epiphenomenon caused by neurodevelopmental malformation and  ataxia, but (2) may be considered as a re-emergence of the ancestral diagonal QL, and (3) it may spontaneously emerge in humans with entirely normal brains, by taking advantage  of neural networks such as central pattern generators that have been preserved for about 400 million years.","http://cogprints.org/8982/","Tan, Prof. Dr. Uner","Karaca, Dr. Sibel and Tan, Prof. Dr. Meliha and Tan , Prof. Dr. Uner","       <span class=\"person_name\">Tan, Prof. Dr.  Uner</span>     (2012)  <a href=\"http://cogprints.org/8982/\"><em>Human quadrupedalism is not an epiphenomenon caused&#13; by neurodevelopmental malformation and ataxia.</em></a>       [Journal (Paginated)]           ","unertan37@yahoo.com","2012-10-25"
