Are Tanner growth charts applicable to children at school entry in Leeds?
Analysis of the heights and weights of about 85% of school entrants in Leeds in 1982 and 1983 showed that the distribution at a mean of 5.3 years is similar to the accepted standard centiles and confirms the appropriateness of the use of these standards at this age.
