Children's heights were measured using a Harpenden's stadiometer to the nearest mm, and transformed to SDS based on Tanner/Whitehouse reference data (Tanner and Whitehouse, 1976). Weight was assessed on Seca scales. Body mass index (BMI) was calculated, and transformed to SDS using UK derived reference curves (Cole et al., 1995).
