Body mass index (BMI) as a predictor of slipped capital femoral epiphysis (SCFE) was studied. A total of 26 adolescent patients had complete annual height and weight measurements taken from birth to onset of slippage. These values were compared with those of the normal adolescent population. Patients with SCFE showed statistically higher BMI during growth than normal developing children. BMI gives more accurate data on body build than height and weight alone and may be a useful tool for evaluating risk factors in SCFE.
研究了体重指数（BMI）作为股骨头骨骺滑脱（SCFE）预测指标的情况。共有26例青少年患者，从出生到滑脱发作期间每年都进行了完整的身高和体重测量。将这些数值与正常青少年人群的数值进行了比较。SCFE患者在生长过程中的BMI在统计学上高于正常发育儿童。与单独的身高和体重相比，BMI能提供更准确的身体形态数据，可能是评估SCFE危险因素的有用工具。
