{"title":"What Is Normal Growth? Principles, Practicalities and Pitfalls of Growth Assessments in Infants and Children.","authors":"Tanis R Fenton, Nicole Gilbert, Seham Elmrayed, Carol J Fenton, Dana L Boctor","doi":"10.1159/000541226","DOIUrl":"10.1159/000541226","url":null,"abstract":"<p><strong>Background: </strong>Growth assessments are a pillar of public health surveillance, individual health screening, and clinical care. Normal growth is defined differently for individuals versus populations. The World Health Organization (WHO) growth standards were developed to describe the pattern of growth in healthy children without socioeconomic limitations whose mothers planned to breastfeed. The growth standards' cut-off points of ±2 standard deviations (z-scores) were defined for population assessments, based on attained size, to describe stunting and wasting at the lower end and overweight at the higher end. In a healthy population, one would expect 2.3% of the population to be above and below these cut-points. Higher child mortality rates associated with higher rates of stunting and wasting noted in observational studies validated these WHO cut-offs. There are knowledge gaps influencing the accuracy and effectiveness of growth assessments in individual children, posing challenges for health care providers.</p><p><strong>Summary: </strong>The principles of assessing normal growth in children and preterm infants are reviewed, along with pitfalls to be avoided. Growth is determined by genetics and modified by the interplay with nutritional, environmental, socioeconomic, and possibly intergenerational factors. This complexity is reflected at both the population and individual level. However, normal growth in an individual has unique-specific factors so requires a comprehensive assessment. Normal growth for an individual child could be defined as the progression of changes in anthropometric measurements to achieve the individual's genetic potential. A misdiagnosis of growth faltering can occur if infants and children are assessed with one-time rather than serial measures, and if age is not corrected for prematurity. Health care provider sensitivity and cognizance when communicating about a child's size is important for parental reassurance and avoiding stigma and unnecessary pressures or restrictions around feeding.</p>","PeriodicalId":8269,"journal":{"name":"Annals of Nutrition and Metabolism","volume":" ","pages":"7-17"},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142738300","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The scientific program of the FINUT 2024 Conference includes 45 parallel symposia, 10 special lectures, 4 \"with-science\" meals, and the presentations of 41 oral communications and 210 poster communications. The four main thematic areas of the Conference are: • Healthy nutrition in the life cycle and clinical nutrition • Nutritional epidemiology and public health challenges in Ibero-America • Safe, healthy, sustainable, and social nutrition • Methods and tools in nutrition The Ibero-American Nutrition Foundation (FINUT) which was established in 2011. FINUT is a non-profit and financially self-supporting entity; our vision is to promote research and training, identify problems of public interest and provide scientific answers; and involve all stakeholders in our cause. Every other year the FINUT Conference allows us to meet in person with the FINUT community and continue the education, information, and research activities in food sciences, nutrition, and health that are carried out virtually daily. We are deeply grateful to the Organizing Committee, the Local Committee, and all the entities represented therein, for their commitment and effort, the Scientific Committee members for their dedicated work and participation in the scientific program, and the University of Antioquia for their interest in hosting this event in Medellin and for all the support received by its authorities, directors, and professors during the organization and execution of the event.
