SITAR-d: extending the SITAR growth curve model to allow for variability in post-pubertal velocity

SITAR-d is useful for extracting early adult weight gain from growth data, potentially an important risk factor for obesity-related morbidity. Height also fits better with SITAR-d, reflecting a minority of individuals with delayed development.

Abstract

SITAR-d is useful for extracting early adult weight gain from growth data, potentially an important risk factor for obesity-related morbidity. Height also fits better with SITAR-d, reflecting a minority of individuals with delayed development.
