Description: Provides tools to compute individual percentile ranks and
        z-scores for clinical biomarkers in children, adolescents and
        young adults, based on age-, sex-, and height-specific
        reference data from the IDEFICS (Identification and prevention
        of Dietary and lifestyle-induced health EFfects In Children and
        infantS) study and the Biomarkers4Pediatrics collaboration.
        Supports the computation of a composite Metabolic Syndrome
        (MetS) score and associated monitoring/action levels for health
        monitoring. For more details see Ahrens et al. (2014)
        <doi:10.1038/ijo.2014.130>.
