  <dc:title>Sex- and Age-Standardized Metrics from the Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention (CDC) Growth Charts</dc:title>
  <dc:title>R package cdcanthro version 0.3.0</dc:title>
  <dc:description>Calculation of sex- and age-standardized growth metrics 
    based on the 2000 CDC growth charts for children and adolescents 
    with ages of &gt;= 24.0 to &lt; 240 months. Provides functions to generate 
    z-scores and percentiles for weight, height, and body mass index (BMI) 
    using the LMS method (lambda-mu-sigma). Includes extended BMI z-scores 
    for values above the 95th percentile to more accurately characterize 
    the sex- and age-standardized BMI of children with very high BMIs. </dc:description>
