Figure. The relation of the heights to the age of male (A) and female (B) juvenile-onset patients with human T-lymphotrophic virus type Iassociated myelopathy/tropical spastic paraparesis (HAM/TSP). Many juvenile-onset patients were apparently recognized with short stature compared with adult-onset patients and standard Japanese individuals. Japanese average heights against age and sex (1995) are shown by solid lines. Solid diamonds, adult-onset patients with HAM/TSP; open squares, juvenile-onset patients with HAM/TSP.
