Department of Anthropology, Emory University, Atlanta, GA 30322, USA
Early Hum Dev 87:361-8. 2011..Rapid growth rates of head circumference and body size during infancy have been reported to predict developmental pathologies that emerge during childhood...- Sex differences in fetal growth responses to maternal height and weightMichelle Lampl
Department of Anthropology, Emory University, Atlanta, Georgia, USA
Am J Hum Biol 22:431-43. 2010..01). Sex differences in response to maternal size are under-appreciated sources of variation in fetal growth studies and may reflect differential growth strategies... - Human growth from the cell to the organism: saltations and integrative physiologyMichelle Lampl
Department of Anthropology, Predictive Health Center for Health Discovery, Emory University, Atlanta, Georgia 30322, USA

Department of Anthropology, Emory University, Atlanta, Georgia, USA
Am J Hum Biol 21:782-92. 2009..Perturbations in abdominal circumference growth and patterns of proportionality suggest an altered growth strategy pre-dating the preterm labor episode... - Downward percentile crossing as an indicator of an adverse prenatal environmentMichelle Lampl
Department of Anthropology, Emory University, Atlanta, GA 30323, USA
Ann Hum Biol 35:462-74. 2008..Identifying prenatal growth-restricting events is essential to clarify pathways and mechanisms of fetal growth... - Sex differences in the relationships among weight gain, subcutaneous skinfold tissue and saltatory length growth spurts in infancyMichelle Lampl
Department of Anthropology, Emory University, Atlanta, GA 30322, USA
Pediatr Res 58:1238-42. 2005..These data generate the hypothesis that a common growth signal cascade couples growth in weight and length/height with a time delay due to sex-specific biology, reflected in a s.c. fat fold interface... - Mixed distribution analysis identifies saltation and stasis growthM Lampl
Department of Anthropology, Emory University, Atlanta, Georgia 30322, USA
Ann Hum Biol 28:403-11. 2001..The present analysis reiterates that individual growth patterns are statistically unique and cannot be reconstructed or identified from group data... - Infants thinner at birth exhibit smaller kidneys for their size in late gestation in a sample of fetuses with appropriate growthMichelle Lampl
Department of Anthropology, Emory University, Atlanta, Georgia 30322, USA
Am J Hum Biol 14:398-406. 2002..The observation that fetuses relatively thin at birth have relatively smaller kidneys for their size in late gestation suggests that the influence of maternal weight on birth outcome may act through organ growth... - Prenatal smoke exposure alters growth in limb proportions and head shape in the midgestation human fetusMichelle Lampl
Department of Anthropology, Emory University, Atlanta, Georgia 30322, USA
Am J Hum Biol 15:533-46. 2003..It is possible that dolichocephaly is a previously unappreciated marker of fetal hypoxia. Reduced tibial growth may be a good marker for shortfall and a useful proxy for the adequacy of circulating resources more generally... - Timing is everything: a reconsideration of fetal growth velocity patterns identifies the importance of individual and sex differencesMichelle Lampl
Department of Anthropology, Emory University, Atlanta, Georgia 30322, USA
Am J Hum Biol 15:667-80. 2003..These results support the importance of sex-specific analyses, reemphasize the common notion that girls grow faster than boys, and direct attention to cross-talk between energy resources and growth... - Exposure to maternal diabetes is associated with altered fetal growth patterns: A hypothesis regarding metabolic allocation to growth under hyperglycemic-hypoxemic conditionsMichelle Lampl
Department of Anthropology, Emory University, Atlanta, Georgia 30324, USA
