  • Title: [Centile values of annual increments in 12 somatic features in Warsaw's children from 4 to 11 years of age].
    Author: Niedźwiecka Z.
    Journal: Probl Med Wieku Rozwoj; 1983; 12():68-78. PubMed ID: 6674991.
    Abstract:
    In a longitudinally followed series of Warsaw children from good socioeconomic conditions 12 anthropometrical traits increments were calculated during the period from 4 to 11 years of life at 1 year intervals. Number of children in age groups ranges from 73 to 104. On the basis of these results were calculated the 10th, 25th, 50th, 75th and 90th percentiles of annual growth velocity. Height and weight velocity is expressed in the form of centile charts. The results are compared with those obtained in series of Polish children born in 1953 and also of British and Swedish children.
