Human growth and development • Longitudinal research cohort 1948 in Philadelphia • 600 European-American boys and girls • ~300 African-American children were followed from birth to 20 years of age • Skull radiographs • Orthopantomograms • Hand-Wrist radiographs • Biopsychometric profiles
Need and importance • Need a longitudinal minority cohort to assess growth (height) and development (dental)
Table 1: Sample size and demographics of African-American/Black subjects with radiographic data African-American data
Goals • Aim 1: Digitize radiographs, demographic and health data into a database • Aim 2: To create an African-American specific skeletal bone and dental atlas
KROGMAN GROWTH STUDY Children born between the late 1930s and early 1960s. Children studied between 1 and 8 times - some covering from about 6 to 17 years. Study is mixed cross-section/longitudinal Is the largest and EARLIEST growth study Data is collected on growth and development (dental and hand/wrist). Compare chronological age to dental and post cranial assessment of age. There is a large amount of data on each child; diet, disease, height and weight, menarche, parent history, ancestry, birth weight, infant feeding, genealogy, personality characteristics HYPOTHESIS: Have patterns of growth and development changed over time? If yes, what factors have influenced these pattern changes?
