GROWTH CHARTS FOR 22q11 DELETION SYNDROME
A collaborative study between Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children London (GOSH), and
Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) to produce five centile (9th, 25th, 50th, 75th, 91st) lines for
weight, height, body mass index (BMI) and head circumference of Caucasian subjects
Weight and height are plotted against WHO Reference centiles birth to 5 years alone and combined
with US CDC 2000 Reference centiles 5 to 20 years, BMI from 2 to 20 years. Head circumference is
plotted against WHO Reference centiles from birth to 5 years alone and combined with UK
Reference centiles 5 to 20 years.
22q11 Deletion Syndrome (22q11DS) solid lines, US and UK Reference (R) dotted lines.
