Since the 19th century there have been clearly documented secular trends to increasing adult height in most European countries, with current rates of 10-30 mm/decade.

In Dr Moell's series of cases there was no increase in weight velocity when steroids were omitted from reinduc-tion therapy. Their attained height (-0.06 standard deviation score) and weight (-0.03 standard deviation score) at diagnosis were comparable.

Between the 1960s and 2000 the distribution of BMI among children became more skewed, whereas between 2000 and 2010 there was relatively little change among either boys or g...
متن کاملSecular trends in birth weight, BMI, and diabetes in the offspring of diabetic mothers.
OBJECTIVE The offspring of mothers who had diabetes during pregnancy experience increased risk later of diabetes and obesity later. We hypothesized that, in light of the historical improvements in the management of diabetes during pregnancy, these late consequences of the early environment might be diminishing with time. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Birth weight and information on BMI and gluc...
متن کاملSecular trends in monitors of reproductive hazard.
There is concern that our reproductive systems are exposed to environmental hazards. A number of potential monitors of these hazards have been proposed (reported rates of cryptorchidism, testicular cancer, hypospadias, dizygotic twinning, sperm count, ectopic pregnancy and sex ratios). To discover whether these are monitoring the same hazards, secular movements in these measures are considered ...
