[An anthropometric study of Sassari population 3 to 36 months of age: females].
The average values (+ SD) for height and weight and head circumference of 666 females 3 and 36 months of ages from the city of Sassari (Sardinia) have been determined. Numerical values and smooth curves from the 3rd to the 97th percentile for height and weight and head-circumference have also been calculated. The results were compared with those published by E. De Toni et Al. 20 years ago. The data show a significant increase in height and weight among Sardinian children during the past 20 years. The availability of these new curves will permit a more correct evaluation of growth in Sardinian children.
