چکیده
Materials and methods 303 children were included. There were 260 girls and 43 boys, aged 14.2±0.2 and 14.1±0.4 years, resp. In each girl or boy, the body height and mass was measured by using the standardized protocol. Individual BMI (kg/m2) was classified according to the established normal ageand gender-related range (Z-score) of limit for Polish children. The calculations were performed on basis of actually measured height (BMI), as well as after height correction (BMIcor). Data were compared with the BMI distribution in healthy children.
