背景和目标。由于线性增长的长期趋势，增长曲线需要定期更新。我们构建了当代生长曲线，评估了身高的长期趋势，并定义了芬兰儿童瘦、超重和肥胖的体重指数(BMI)分界点。材料和方法：73,659名0-20岁(出生于1983-2008年)的健康受试者的混合横断面/纵向数据来自初级卫生保健机构的提供者。使用位置、尺度和形状的广义加性模型(GAMLSS)对身高/身高、身高/身高和体重指数的生长参考进行了拟合。通过BMI 30、25、18.5、17和16 kg/m的BMI百分位数曲线
Background and objectives. Growth curves require regular updates due to secular trends in linear growth. We constructed contemporary growth curves, assessed secular trends in height, and defined body mass index (BMI) cut-off points for thinness, overweight, and obesity in Finnish children.Material and methods: Mixed cross-sectional/longitudinal data of 73,659 healthy subjects aged 0--20 years (born 1983--2008) were collected from providers in the primary health care setting. Growth references for length/height-for-age, weight-for-length/height, and BMI-for-age were fitted using generalized additive models for location, scale, and shape (GAMLSS). BMI percentile curves passing through BMIs 30, 25, 18.5, 17, and 16 kg/m
