Validated predictive equations based on tibial length in estimating height for children with cerebral palsy for 2–18 years, across all GMFCS levels

Validated predictive equations based on tibial length in estimating height for children with cerebral palsy for 2–18 years, across all GMFCS levels

Children with cerebral palsy (CP) typically suffer from congenital deformities, such as scoliosis and contractures, therefore, it is a challenge to measure the stature of CP children. Studies have suggested that predictive equations based on tibia length (TL) may be used as an alternative method in...
