Prediction of adult height from height, bone age, and occurrence of menarche, at ages 4 to 16 with allowance for midparent height.
Multiple regression equations for predicting the adult height of boys and girls from height and bone age at ages 4 and upwards are presented. There is a separate equation for each half year of chronological age; and for pre- and postmenarcheal girls at ages 11 to 14. These are based on longitudinal data from 116 boys and 95 girls of the Harpenden Growth Study and the London group of the Interna...

متن کاملAdult Height Prediction Models
We review seven methods for adult height prediction (AHP) based on bone age, ranging from the BayleyPinneau method, published in 1952, to the BoneXpert method, published in 2009. These models are based on four different methods for bone age assessment including Greulich Pyle, Tanner Whitehouse, Fels, and the automated BoneXpert method. The aim of this chapter is to convey an understanding of th...

Frisch, R. E., and Revelle, R. (1971). Archives of Disease in Childhood, 46, 695. Height and weight at menarche and a hypothesis of menarche. Height and weight at menarche were estimated by interpolation of longitudinal growth data for 181 girls. Mean weight at menarche, about 48 kg, does not change as menarcheal age increases, whereas mean height increases significantly. Early and late menarch...
