Development of body fat distribution was assessed in a two-decade follow-up study. The present article describes the development of various trunk/extremity ratios and gives the figures by age and sex between 1 month to 21 years. The relationship between adult and childhood skinfold (SF) ratio measurements is weak in boys and slightly better in girls. From the present and our previous study, we can select adiposity measurements in children which both are associated to pathologies and have the best correlations with adult values, i.e. the body mass index (BMI) in both sexes, trunk SF in boys and the subscapular/arm SF ratio in girls. Consequently, a boy with both high BMI and trunk SF values or a girl with both high BMI and subscapular/arm SF values have an increased risk of centralized obesity at adult age.
在一项为期二十年的随访研究中评估了身体脂肪分布的发展情况。本文描述了各种躯干/四肢比例的发展情况，并给出了1个月至21岁之间按年龄和性别的数据。男孩中成人与儿童皮褶（SF）比率测量值之间的关系较弱，而女孩中的关系稍好一些。从目前的研究以及我们之前的研究中，我们可以选择与病理状况相关且与成人值具有最佳相关性的儿童肥胖测量指标，即男女的体重指数（BMI）、男孩的躯干皮褶厚度以及女孩的肩胛下/手臂皮褶厚度比率。因此，BMI和躯干皮褶厚度值都高的男孩或BMI和肩胛下/手臂皮褶厚度值都高的女孩在成年后患中心性肥胖的风险会增加。
