Selected characteristics for the BMI trajectory of a hypothetical child. Velocity1 between 1 week and infancy peak, Velocity2 between infancy peak to adiposity rebound, Velocity3 between adiposity rebound and 18 years of age. Area under curve (AUC1) between 1 week and infancy peak, AUC2 between infancy peak to adiposity rebound, AUC3 between adiposity rebound and 18 years of age. Note that the AUC below BMI value of 10 was not shown.
