Abstract

The Body Proportion Chart clearly demonstrated the trend of growth of stature, sitting height, lower limb length and lower segment-upper segment ratio (LUR), and also the sex differences in the respective dimension and ratio. The Body Proportion Chart (BPC) should be a good tool for analyzing body growth during children and adolescents.
