Individually fitted curves of height (Panels a and b) and height-for-age z-score (HAZ) (Panels c and d) from birth to age 24 months for boys (light blue, n = 270) and girls (pink, n = 225). The mean curves are shown in solid blue line for boys and red line for girls. The World Health Organization (WHO) growth standards are shown as the solid black lines in Panels a and b and as solid horizontal black lines in Panels c and d for the WHO “pseudo children” who were growing along the WHO percentiles, separately for boys and girls
