The WHO Multicentre Growth Reference Study (MGRS)
The WHO Multicentre Growth Reference Study (MGRS) was undertaken between 1997 and 2003 to generate new growth curves for assessing the growth and development of infants and young children around the world.
The MGRS collected primary growth data and related information from approximately 8500 children from widely different ethnic backgrounds and cultural settings (Brazil, Ghana, India, Norway, Oman and the USA).
The new growth curves are expected to provide a single international standard that represents the best description of physiological growth for all children from birth to five years of age and to establish the breastfed infant as the normative model for growth and development.

Latest reviews of STAT GrowthCharts™ WHO Lite app for iPhone and iPad
Its really better after the upgrade; BUY If you pay atention on the graphic, Its clear the diference between the percentual show in the curve and the percentual show in the site where you must put the datas, in the last case is always bigger than graphic; so, you will overstimate the answer. It must become better after fix this big bug yet!
I was actually quite satisfied with this app, it calculated exact percentiles based on WHO data. Only once in a while would it hang up otherwise very useful. With iOS 6 the app quits every time I enter a birth date. This is terrible. I really liked this app. Please fix this, other than that I would rate it 4 stars!!!
Hasnt been updated in 3 years so its made for old iPhones and is tiny on screen. Also is incompatible with iPhone 6 (or maybe its iOS 9) as the screen doesnt render properly so you cant add decimals in for height or weight.
Screen squished on I phone 5 with new iOS update making it hard to press 4 or 7 or decimal places. Percentiles overlap and no option to use set 2 of WHO.
In last few months no longer displays correctly, difficult to enter numbers, incompatible with newer OS updates.
