[The auxogram: a new parallel graph of growth].

The Auxogram presents graphically in a new way known data on parameters of human somatic growth. The system of coordinates is replaced by a parallel, quasilogarithmic arrangement of age, head circumference, length/height, weight and stage of adolescence that gives mean values and normal variations and allows ready comparison of any one parameter with any other. A further advantage of the Auxogram is that it contains all the data for each sex on a single page.
