Retrospective analysis establishes age and sex-specific reference percentiles for phase angle, suggesting new clinical assessment tools.

Phase angle was positively correlated with age (B = 0.018) and body mass index (B = 0.077), indicating important growth factors.
No significant differences in phase angle were found between boys and girls aged 6-7, but boys showed higher values from ages 8-11.
Data from 1,247 children reveal consistency in phase angle readings, highlighting the applicability of established percentiles.
This study provides clinicians with new reference ranges for phase angle assessment, enhancing nutritional evaluations in pediatric care.

Yang et al. (2025) studied this question.
