Fig. 6

Total, basic, and puberty-specific weight gain (in kg, top; in SDS with 95%CI, bottom) relative to the onset of puberty for girls (red at the top) and boys (blue at the bottom) according to BMI in childhood (high BMI, > + 1.5SDS (- — -) and low BMI, <− 1.5SDS (- - -)). Mean total weight (left panels), basic growth (middle panels), and specific pubertal growth (right panels) in girls and boys from the GrowUp1974Gothenburg cohort. Curves are aligned for age at onset of pubertal growth spurt. Data are visualized alongside the new reference for total mean weight (thick red or blue solid lines) and ± 2SDS
