Overall pubertal growth measures were derived using the Super-Imposition by Translation And Rotation (SITAR) method, developed by Tim Cole. SITAR growth curve analysis is effective at summarizing pubertal growth. NSHD anthropometry data were modelled jointly with a second cohort {{http://www.bristol.ac.uk/alspac|(ALSPAC)}} to improve the fit. For further details see publication two below. | Overall pubertal growth measures were derived using the Super-Imposition by Translation And Rotation (SITAR) method, developed by Tim Cole. SITAR growth curve analysis is effective at summarizing pubertal growth. NSHD anthropometry data were modelled jointly with a second cohort {{http://www.bristol.ac.uk/alspac|(ALSPAC)}} to improve the fit, due to relatively infrequent height and weight measurements at puberty. For further details see publication two below. |
