[Auxological analysis of children with normal short stature]

Auxological investigations involved 123 children aged 5 and 7 years, who were observed for the period of two years. They included pediatric, anthropometric and social examinations. The authors concluded that socio-economic conditions were not so different, so that they could influence the level of development of children under study. The tendency for increasing deficit of stature with age and for changes in type of body built were also observed.
