These children also commonly manifested with multiple system issues, including: (1) Height and Weight: short stature (2/15), obese (3/15) with a body mass index (BMI) above the 97th percentile. (2) Eye Problems: strabismus (6/15), astigmatism (4/15), nystagmus (1/15), and ptosis...
A pediatric growth chart is a basic grid on which growth information is plotted and then compared to sample statistics. These samples determine the percentile group a child falls into and whether his or her height, weight, and head circumference are maintaining a consistent growth pattern. If a ...
Growth hormone deficiency is a congenital disease no matter when height deficit becomes clinically evident; children with growth hormone deficiency grow in disease-specific percentile channels, with a highly significantly reduced length and weight.

Main Outcome Measures Excess adiposity (body mass index percentile) and central adiposity (waist circumference percentile and waist to height ratio). Results Excess adiposity (body mass index ≥85th percentile) occurred in 37.9% of psoriatic children (n = 155) vs 20.5% of controls (n = 42) ...
The World Health Organization (WHO) child growth standards were used to analyze the anthropometry of the patients at each check-up, using the weight and height percentile in children under 5 years of age and the body mass index (BMI) in children over 5 years of age. Statistical ...
Thus, 66% of the patients with RTT aged 7–18 y had BMC values that were <10th percentile for age (Fig. 1A). However, Figure 1B shows a linear relationship between BMC and age 2–16 y (r = 0.61). Figure 2A presents BMD measurements plotted against normal female values as provided ...
2000). Participant ages ranged from 12 to 17 (M = 14.32, SD = 1.56), and there were 14 male and 23 female participants. All participants had a Body Mass Index (BMI) percentile categorized as overweight (i.e., ≥85th percentile) or obese (i.e., ≥95th percentile; M ...
