Abstract

A study was made on 114 pupils from a school for the mentally retarded in Bandung. In 50 subjects the length ratio between the upper and the lower segment of the body were more than one; of 44 subjects (32 debils, 11 imbecils, 1 borderline debil-imbecil) we found 2 with hypertelorism, 1 with dry and rough skin, and 1 with gross and fine motor abnormalities. Dental development and bone ages were within normal limits. No rise in serum cholesterol and changes in NTR (Normalized Thyroxine Ratio) were found. T4 (thyroxine) values were within normal limits. Radioactive iodine uptake and scanning of 42 subjects showed hyperplasia in 32 and euthyroidism in 5 subjects. Three subjects suggested a possible iodine contamination, 2 subjects with uptake of more than 50%, one of them showed adenoma (toxic?) on scanning; on the other one scanning was not done. Hypothyroidism was not found; 32 subjects which showed hyperplasia were suggestive of active thyroid. Further studies should be done in another sample of population to trace the problems of hypothyroidism in childhood.

Abstract

Recently a team approach is suggested in health care delivery to the community. Simple methods in evaluating health by professions other than the medical profession have to be designed. The teacher is the best person besides the medical personnels to be also involved in promoting the physical health of the school children. In order to assess this, a standard percentile distant curve growth chart drawn relevant to the local socio-economic condition is required. In developing countries a growth chart of the best nourished and circumstanced local group is suggested to be used as a standard (Tanner, 1973). The aim of this study is to provide the teacher such a growth chart. The subjects consisted of 10.342 pupils from 32 selected schools, from which centiles curves were drawn. The percentile curves showed that the 90 centile is below the 50 centile and the 50 centile below the 10 centile of the Harvard Standard.
