Abstract The association of myopia and height, weight and body‐mass index was examined by two methods: a case control method and a co‐twin control method. One hundred eightyseven myopic (57 males and 130 females) and 603 non‐myopic (335 males and 268 females) subjects were studied in the first study. Among males the myopic subjects were taller compared

Femur/stature ratio and estimates of stature in children
American Journal of Physical Anthropology, 1992AbstractThe present study examines the relationship between femur length and stature in children between the ages of 8 and 18 years.
