Growth charts were published in October 2015 that track height-for-age percentiles for girls with Down syndrome ages 2 to 20 years. The charts were created based on data from a study published in Pediatrics in 2015 led by Zemel et al., which established growth standards specifically for children with Down syndrome in the United States. The charts allow doctors and parents to monitor growth patterns in girls with Down syndrome and determine if they are meeting typical growth milestones for individuals with the condition.
