726 urban school-going children in the age group 5-16 years were screened during the period from February to May, 1980 at Imphal. The growth rate of girls was apparently faster than that of boys as evidenced from the increment nature of height and weight per annum. Growth spurts were observed during the age group of 6-8 years and 12-13 years for boys, and 5-8 years and 11-12 years for girls. The height pattern of these children was significantly higher than the Indian standard height. However, weight was more or less similar with the Indian standard.
1980年2月至5月期间，在英帕尔对726名5至16岁的城市在校儿童进行了筛查。从每年身高和体重的增长情况来看，女孩的生长速度明显快于男孩。男孩在6至8岁和12至13岁年龄段出现生长突增，女孩在5至8岁和11至12岁年龄段出现生长突增。这些儿童的身高模式显著高于印度标准身高。然而，体重与印度标准大致相似。
