Modelling Childhood Growth Using Fractional Polynomials and Linear Splines

BACKGROUND: There is increasing emphasis in medical research on modelling growth across the life course and identifying factors associated with growth. Here, we demonstrate multilevel models for childhood growth either as a smooth function (using fractional polynomials) or a set of connected linear...
