title: Stature, limb and jaw growth.
abstract: From a study of four Caucasoid population samples, aged 1-20 years, a linear relationship was established between stature and jaw or limb growth. However, the correlations between the various parameters varied between the different samples, which suggested that caution must be applied to the interpretation of growth data.
