Differences between the median of the Kilifi SCA growth curves and the median of the WHO growth curves. To provide a comparison of the Kilifi growth curves (dashed lines) with the established WHO growth curves (solid lines), the medians (50th percentiles) for female and male height and BMI were overlaid. Differences between the medians increased with age. To illustrate this, the shaded labels show the differences (WHO-SCA, rounded to whole numbers) at 5, 10, and 15 years of age.
