CDC/NCHS documentation supports continuity of the core NHANES anthropometry protocol across Continuous NHANES. Indexed differences for standing height are limited to dataset context and documentation wording, not a confirmed measurement discontinuity.

Evidence signals: source-stated

Praxis harmonization actions
  • Pool standing height across calibrated cycles without a method adjustment when no substantive variable-level change is present. Preserve age eligibility and relevant measurement comment-code exclusions.

No normalized longitudinal change evidence is available for this variable. Absence of events must not be interpreted as proof of cross-cycle equivalence.
