Development of an index that decreases birth weight, promotes postnatal growth and yet minimizes selection intensity in beef cattle [PDF]

open access: yesAnimal Bioscience
Objective The main goal of our current study was to improve the growth curve of meat animals by decreasing the birth weight while achieving a finishing weight that is the same as that before selection but at younger age.

Automatic assessment of bone age in Taiwanese children: A comparison of the Greulich and Pyle method and the Tanner and Whitehouse 3 method

open access: yesKaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, 2020
Proper bone age assessment is crucial for the clinical diagnosis and evaluation of treatment responses. We investigated the applicability of Greulich and Pyle (GP), and Tanner and Whitehouse 3 (TW3) methods for children in modern Taiwan, using computer ...

HUMAN GROWTH CURVE [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of General Physiology, 1926
The human growth curve shows two (and only two) outstanding periods of accelerated growth—the circumnatal and the adolescent. The circumnatal growth cycle attains great velocity, which reaches a maximum at the time of birth. The curve of this cycle is best fitted by a theoretical skew curve of Pearson's Type I. It has a theoretical range
