Abstract
Aims The timing of the growth spurt and gender differences in physical growth can vary greatly, and it may contribute to the final height. However, there are few studies about height and height velocity of early/average/late maturing children because of the requirements of a population based longitudinal study. We investigated the height and height velocity according to growth tempo from the Kangwha cohort.
