sub Subpopulation, e.g. ethnicity or age group (for nl4.wfh)<br />
sex Sex (M,F)<br />
x Decimal age (0-21 years) or Height (for nl4.wfh)<br />
L Lambda (skewness) curve<br />
M Median curve<br />
S Coefficient of Variation curve<br />
The model was fitted by the LMS model. Parameters are stored as type LMS. Tabulated values are<br />
point ages.<br />
Height follows a normal distribution, with all lambda parameters set equal to 1. The standard<br />
deviation (in cm) is obtained as S*M.<br />
The naming conventions are as follows:<br />
nl4.hgt Length/Height (cm) for Age<br />
nl4.wgt Weight (kg) for Age<br />
nl4.wfh Weight (kg) for Height (cm)<br />
nl4.bmi Head circumference (cm) for Age<br />
nl4.lgl Leg Length (cm) for Age<br />
nl4.hip Hip circumference (cm) for Age<br />
nl4.wst Waist circumference (cm) for Age<br />
nl4.whr Waist/Hip ratio for Age<br />
nl4.sit Sitting Height for Age<br />
nl4.shh Sitting Height/Height ratio for Age
