Geographical Differences in the Population-Based Cross-Sectional Growth Curve and Age at Peak Height Velocity with respect to the Prevalence Rate of Overweight in Japanese Children

<div>Distribution map of age at PHV in Japanese children. Distribution map of the 8-year (2006–2013) averages of the age at PHV in (a) 5-year-old males and (b) 5-year-old females in each prefecture. The age at PHV tends to be earlier in the northern areas and Okinawa prefecture for both sexes.</div>
