Physical growth from birth to adulthood in healthy Swiss children born 1954-1956 is described. The data are based
on the First Zurich Longitudinal Study in which 137 individuals of each sex have been followed from birth to
adulthood between 1954 and 1976. Distance standards of 20 anthropometric measurements such as weight, height
and head circumference are presented as mean values and standard deviations or as median values (for weight and
skinfold thickness) with smoothed empirical centiles. Velocity standards are provided for seven anthropometric
parameters. The following standard growth charts for clinical use are presented: weight, length/height and headcircumference in the perinatal period, in the age range of 0-48 months and in the age range of 1-18 years (including
some data on puberty), as well as weight for length/height and height velocity (cross-sectional and peak height
centered). Comparison of the growth standards with those of previous Swiss studies and of recent foreign studies
revealed only minor differences. Various aspects relevant for the clinical use of growth standards, such as
measurement error or secular trend, are discussed.

Over the last 20 yr, 245 patients withchronic pancreatitis (163 with alcoholicrelapsing pancreatitis;145 of them
with calcificpancreatitis)were prospectively studied at regular intervals with particular regard to pain, pancreatic
functions, calcifications, pancreatic surgery, and survival. The median period of observation in the group with
alcoholic relapsing calcificpancreatitis was 10.4 yr. In this group of 145 patients, 85% experienced lasting pain
relief within a median time of 4.5 yr from onset. A gradual increase of pancreatic calcifications and pancreatic
dysfunction was observed with increasing duration of the disease. Pain relief was accompanied by a marked increase
in pancreatic dysfunction and calcification. Of 163 patients with alcoholicrelapsing pancreatitis,87 (53%) needed
no pancreatic surgery. Seventy-six patients (47%) with recurrent or persistent severe pain, mainly due to
pseudocysts (n = 56), underwent either a cyst drainage procedure (n = 22), papillotomy (n = 4), distalpancreatectomy (40%-60%, n = 24), or Wirsungo-jejunostomy (n = 26). The proportion of patients experiencing
lasting pain relief was similar in the operated and nonoperated group of patients. In both groups lasting relief from
pain was correlated with the duration of the disease and was associated with marked pancreatic dysfunction. The
50% survival time in alcoholicchronic pancreatitis (with or without pancreatic surgery) was 20-24 yr (after onset),
thus markedly shorter than in nonalcoholicpancreatitis.Of the 245 patients, 86 died. About 20% ofdeaths were
related topancreatitis and its complications. Most extrapancreatic causes ofdeath weremalignancies,cardiovascular
diseases,severeinfections,and nonpancreatic surgery.
