在中國(guó)香港、上海、臺(tái)灣曾經(jīng)對(duì)兒童靶身高進(jìn)行了研究。Luo et al.[5]的認(rèn)為瑞典兒童的靶身高模型可應(yīng)用于中國(guó)香港兒童。而在中國(guó)上海[6]和臺(tái)灣兒童[7]的應(yīng)用比較研究中,瑞典兒童的靶身高模型并不適用于中國(guó)兒童,但是這兩項(xiàng)研究的樣本量較小。因此,《中國(guó)人手腕骨發(fā)育標(biāo)準(zhǔn)-中華05》課題組依據(jù)中國(guó)五城市兒童樣本,以CMH、FPH、cTH方法的原則重新計(jì)算預(yù)測(cè)公式,觀察了不同公式對(duì)中國(guó)兒童靶身高的預(yù)測(cè)效果[8]。
