pediatric.zcalc: Z-Score Calculator for Biomarkers: Childhood to Young Adulthood

Provides tools to compute individual percentile ranks and z-scores for clinical biomarkers in children, adolescents and young adults, based on age-, sex-, and height-specific reference data from the IDEFICS (Identification and prevention of Dietary and lifestyle-induced health EFfects In Children and infantS) study and the Biomarkers4Pediatrics collaboration. Supports the computation of a composite Metabolic Syndrome (MetS) score and associated monitoring/action levels for health monitoring. For more details see Ahrens et al.
