Head Circumference

8K1613

Head circumference measures the size of the skull around its widest part—an important indicator of brain growth and development, especially in infancy and early childhood. Research shows that variations near genes involved in brain growth and cranial development (like HMGA2, EFEMP1, and SOX9) can influence individual...
