[Jena longitudinal study of the growth of 0-3 year old children. 2: Percentile curves for body height, body weight, height related weight and growth rate]
Abstract
Charts for body length and height, body weight, and height- and weight velocity basing on a longitudinal study with 306 children from the newborn age to 3 years of age, are presented. Length and weight velocity are strongest in the time between the 4th and 8th week of life. From the first to the fourth trimester velocities decrease continuously.
