- Resumen: Introduction: Menarche is the last stage of pubertal development, which coincides with the completion of longitudinal growth. As a consequence of the lack of national and up-to-date data related to post-menarcheal (PM) growth, the aim of our work was to evaluate post menarcheal growth in a group of contemporary healthy Chilean girls followed, prospectively, until 4 years post-menarche. Methods: This study was nested within the GOCS cohort, in a prospective fashion. The girls were followed yearly after menarche for at least four years. We modeled each girl growth using a Super Imposition by Translation and Rotation (SITAR) model. Results: A total of 534 girls were evaluated prospectively, 399 girls had height measured two years after menarche, 421 after three years, and 364 of 534 had height measured at four year post menarche. Expected height gained PM, in the complete study group was 6.6 ± 2.5 cm. We observed that the largest gain in height occurred after the first year PM (3.8 1.5 cm). According to the age of menarche, the group with earlier menarche (< 11 years old ) had a greater height gain in cm after four years PM ( 8.2± 3.2 cm ) and the smallest gain was among girls with menarche at an age older than 13 yr (4.4±1.6) ( p<0.001). Age at menarche was significantly associated with all post menarche growth patterns (size, timing and intensity), indicating that girls with older age at menarche grew taller, later and slower than girls with younger age at menarche. Adjusting PM growth pattern by BMI maintained all these association. Applying the SITAR model specifically , girls experiencing menarche after the age of 13 years exhibited slower growth , occurring slightly earlier and with less intensity when adjusted by BMI at menarche . Conclusion: In a national and updated dataset we observed that girls grew until 4 years post menarche an average of 6.6 ± 2.5 cm., with greatest gain occurring in the first year PM , (3.8 ± 1.5 cm). Age at menarche was associated with menarche growth patterns.},

- Resumen: Context: Prepubertal adiposity is associated with earlier puberty. It is unclear when this association starts, if all adiposity markers are similarly associated, and whether all pubertal milestones are similarly affected.



Objective: To evaluate the association between different adiposity markers during childhood and the timing of different pubertal milestones in Latino girls.

Design, setting and participants: Longitudinal follow-up of 539 female participants of the Chilean Growth and Obesity Cohort (GOCS) recruited from childcare centers (mean age 3.5y) from the South East area of Santiago, Chile. Participants were singletons born between 2002-2003 within the normal birthweight range. Since 2006, a trained dietitian measured weight, height, waist circumference (WC) and skinfolds to estimate BMI CDC percentiles, central obesity, fat mass (%FM) and fat mass index (FMI = fat mass/height2).

Main outcome: since 2009, sexual maturation was assessed every 6 months to assess age at: i) thelarche, ii) pubarche, iii) menarche, and iv) age at peak height velocity (PHV).

Results: At thelarche, 12.5% were obese and 2% had central obesity. The median age of pubarche, menarche, and PHV were all associated with markers of adiposity at different time points during childhood; whereas thelarche only with %FM and FMI. Adiposity clusters models showed that children with trajectories of high WC, %FM and FMI during childhood were related with earlier thelarche, pubarche, menarche and PHV; BMI trajectories only with menarche and PHV.

Conclusions: Higher WC, %FM and FMI were associated with earlier age at thelarche, pubarche, menarche, and PHV. The effect of BMI was less consistent.},
