RE: Growth Curve Modelling
Nyashadzaishe,
UK and I believe WHO growth charts are derived using LMS method which you can
do in R - look for papers by TJ Cole. I also suspect you might get a response
from a certain NHG Holford telling you to look at his NONMEM method: Paediatr
Anaesth. 2011 Mar;21(3):309-15 - I have only skimmed this paper but I think the
introduction gives a review of possible methods.
BW,
Joe

Subject: [NMusers] Growth Curve Modelling
I am trying to model growth in children (1-20 years) with a particular disease
condition in NONMEM, R or any other software. There seem to be a lack of
concensus in literature on the functions (models) one can use. I am therefore
looking for some pointers from anyone who could have worked on something
similar before.
Thank you
