Adult Height and Adult Sitting Height in Childhood Medulloblastoma Survivors
The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism, 2003Outcome in adult height and sitting height is poor in children surviving medulloblastoma due to craniospinal irradiation (CSRT) and chemotherapy. We evaluated adult height and sitting height in 51 medulloblastoma patients stratified into four groups: G1, GH-deficient (GHD) patients treated with 23-39 Gy CSRT but not treated with GH [recombinant human ...

Predicting adult height from a child's current height
BMJ, 2011The physical examination of infants, children, and adolescents includes the measurement of weight and longitudinal growth (supine length or body stature), and plotting these measurements on growth charts is regarded as a useful tool for detecting health disorders. Growth charts are used for almost every child seen in primary or secondary care. Abnormal

Prediction of adult height using maturity-based cumulative height velocity curves
The Journal of Pediatrics, 2005To validate and demonstrate how adult height can be predicted by using reference values obtained from maturity and sex-specific cumulative height velocity curves.Serial height measurements were taken on 224 boys and 120 girls. Individuals were classified as early, average, or late maturers, depending on their age of peak height velocity.
