Constructed growth charts and nutrition for pontocerebellar hypoplasia type 2A

Developmental Medicine &Child Neurology, EarlyView.
To our knowledge, we are the first to provide constructed disease‐specific growth charts for PCH2A (age 0–18 years). Constructed growth charts (0–2 years) for height, weight, body mass index, and head circumference are compared in a sex‐disaggregated manner to typically developing children. Failure to thrive is evident despite normal caloric intake and
