English to Romanian Medical Medical (general) medical report

Discussion

Nu pt. copii For adults, BMI is measured by dividing weight in kilograms by height in metres squared.
The calculation for children begins the same way, but the result is then compared with those of others of the same age and sex to calculate the child’s ‘centile’ – or position relative to others on a scale of one to 100.

"obese boys have been considered the ones that they had body mass index greater than 20.1 (BMI>20.1) and obese girls the ones that they had body mass index greater than 21.7 (BMI>21.7)"

acum, fie vorba între noi, în US, 21.7 pt. femei este ”slabă”; peste 25 începe să fie supraponderală ... :-))
Virgula ... o plaseaza la procentajul 89 [din 100 de indivizi normali], [VIRGULA] adica in intervalul supraponderal.
