Jelliffe D showed that body height and other genetically dependent measurements are useful to relate with nutritionally labile tissue in construction of age-in dependent anthropometric parameters for nutritional assessment. The aim of this study was to evaluate the correlation between different anthropometric measurements with body height; and with nutritionally labile parameters in Macedonian children. Method: In 800 healthy and well-nourished children (age 9.2 ± 3.2 y), divided in different age and gender groups, were obtained ac cording to IBP: body height (BH), body weight (BW), arm length (AL), leg length (LL), sitting height (SH), knee height (KH), upper arm circumference (UAC), triceps and sub-scapular skin-folds and were calculated: BMI, upper muscle (UMA) and fat area (UFA). Results: Correlation between BH and other genetically dependent measurements was stronger in boys. The most significant predictors of BH were KH in boys aged from 9-9.99 y (R=0.850, F=29.25, p=0.0001), and LL in girls aged 10-10.99 y (R=0.760, F=19.80, p=0.0001). In most of the groups the correlation between SH, AL, LL and KH with nutrition ally labile parameters was not significant. Conclusion: Knee height and leg length are the most significant age-in dependent measurements that can be used in nutritional assessment of Macedonian children aged from 7-10 years, when it is impossible to take a reliable measurement of body height.
