cppPGSF

Pediatric growth standard based on LMS data from the CDC and WHO.

Data and utilities for estimating pediatric blood pressure
percentiles by sex, age, and optionally height (stature) as described in
Martin et.al. (2022) <doi:10.1001/jamanetworkopen.2022.36918>.
Blood pressure percentiles for children under one year of age come from Gemelli
et.al. (1990) <doi:10.1007/BF02171556>. Estimates of blood pressure
percentiles for children at least one year of age are informed by
data from the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) and the
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)
<doi:10.1542/peds.2009-2107C> or from Lo et.al. (2013)
<doi:10.1542/peds.2012-1292>. The flowchart for selecting the informing
data source comes from Martin et.al. (2022)
<doi:10.1542/hpeds.2021-005998>.
