Abstract

Triceps and subscapular skinfolds were measured on 95 North American children with cerebral palsy. Triceps fat was far more depleted than subscapular fat in comparison with population standards for sex, age and race. This truncal distribution of fat may be related to the high prevalence of under nutrition found in the sample.
