Adult 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...
متن کاملAdult height in constitutionally tall stature: accuracy of five different height prediction methods.
The accuracy of height predictions at various ages based on five different methods (Tanner-Whitehouse mark I; Tanner-Whitehouse mark II; index of potential height; Bayley-Pinneau; Roche-Wainer-Thissen) was compared at yearly intervals with final height achieved in 32 boys (78 predictions) and 100 girls (227 predictions) with constitutionally tall stature. The boys were initially seen at a mean ...

متن کاملPrediction of adult height by Tanner-Whitehouse method in young Caucasian male athletes.
BACKGROUND Although the accuracy of final height prediction using skeletal age development has been confirmed in many studies for children treated for congenital primary hypothyroidism, short normal children, constitutionally tall children, no studies compared the predicted adult height at young age with final stature in athletic population. AIM In this study, the intention was to investigate...
متن کاملHeight prediction from ulna length.
Height is fundamental to assessing growth and nutrition, calculating body surface area, and predicting pulmonary function in childhood. Its measurement is hindered by muscle weakness, joint, or spinal deformity. Arm span has been used as a substitute, but is inaccurate. The objective of the study was to identify a limb measurement that precisely and reproducibly predicts height in childhood. Ma...
