Growth and pubertal development are important health markers. We used the data of a longitudinal growth study on a contemporary sample of US youth to examine the relationship between peak height velocity (PHV) and Tanner staging. We observed a substantial variability in the timing of PHV across Tanner stages, which is an important consideration for clinicians when assessing growth.
生长和青春期发育是重要的健康指标。我们利用一项针对美国当代青少年样本的纵向生长研究数据,来检验身高增长高峰速度(PHV)与坦纳分期之间的关系。我们观察到,在坦纳各分期中,PHV出现的时间存在很大差异,这是临床医生在评估生长情况时的一个重要考量因素。
