Mean peak height velocity (cm/year) vs. mean age at peak height velocity (years) for cohorts of diverse ancestral backgrounds. Yellow and purple lines represent a linear model fit to APHV ~ PHV × sex. The shaded bars represent the standard deviation of the linear regression. The samples included 19 cohorts of European ancestry, 3 African American cohorts, 2 East Asian cohorts, and 5 American Native or Hispanic cohorts
