For both weight and BMI, the bootstrap confidence intervals for the 99.9th centile were at least an order of magnitude wider than the corresponding 50th centile values. Conclusions These charts complement existing WHO charts by allowing weight-for-age to be plotted concurrently with height in ...

1). We also conducted analyses adjusted only for fetal sex (that is, not gestational age), which showed high correlations with our main results (all r_g ≥ 0.99). Four additional loci reached genome-wide significance in the fetal sex-adjusted analyses, all of which were close to ...
The association between weight perception and the SES score was assessed using logistic regression adjusted for age, sex, and actual weight status. All analyses in this paper were restricted to the individuals (n = 1239) who had full data for all variables relevant to this paper. Weight ...
