CiNii 図書 - Growth standards, bone maturation and idiopathic short stature : 1st KIGS Expert Meeting, Positano, Italy, November 10-11, 1995

The ultimate goal of KIGS, the Kabi International Growth Study, is to establish global guidelines and standards in the diagnosis and treatment of growth disorders. However, the clinicians, statisticians and auxologists involved must first arrive at a consensus of opinion on certain fundamental issues. This publication contains the reports of the 1st KIGS Expert Meeting, which related mainly to the question of auxological standards for height and also included the problem of bone maturation and bone-age rating. In addition, the proceedings contains a consensus statement for the definition of idiopathic short stature, which was drawn up on the basis of expert discussions. These reports are both useful and interesting for all those involved in the care of children with growth disorders.
