Association between infancy BMI peak and body composition and blood pressure at age 5-6 years.
<h4>Introduction</h4>The development of overweight is often measured with the body mass index (BMI). During childhood the BMI curve has two characteristic points: the adiposity rebound at 6 years and the BMI peak at 9 months of age. In this study, the associations between the BMI peak an...
