Abstract:
Abstract:The onset and progression of puberty development is affected by interaction of genes and environments, and is linked to lifelong health. A comprehensive understanding of pubertal development in Chinese children and its influence on health outcomes becomes an important public health concern. Therefore, building an evaluation index system for Chinese children to assess the puberty onset and the temporal sequences throughout the puberty stage, and establishing a multidimensional predictive model for puberty trajectory lay down the foundation for this issue. This article reviews the currently available evidence referring to the assessment system and the prediction model for puberty timing, and outlines directions for future research in this area.
