Scatterplot showing the relationship between AgeP50 CI and relative pubertal age (standard deviation scores of AgeP50). Relative pubertal age is shown as AgeP50 SDS , SD-scores of AgeP50 (age at 50% of the P-function), for girls (red circles), for boys (blue crosses) in the study population (revealing that early and late puberty can be defined as ±2 SD-scores from mean age of AgeP50), are related to the confidence interval (CI) of AgeP50 (AgeP50 CI ). For girls; AgeP50 CI  = 0.547 + 0.0392 x AgeP50 SDS , adjusted r2 = 0.0300. For boys; AgeP50 CI  = 0.430 + 0.0186 x AgeP50 SDS , adjusted r2 = 0.0126
