In an ambitious undertaking, Growing Up in Australia's Child Health CheckPoint streamlined and implemented wide-ranging population phenotypes and biosamples relevant to non-communicable diseases in nearly 1900 parent-child dyads throughout Australia at child aged 11-12 years. This BMJ Open Special Issue describes the methodology, epidemiology and parent-child concordance of 14 of these phenotypes, spanning cardiovascular, respiratory, bone, kidney, hearing and language, body composition, metabolic profiles, telomere length, sleep, physical activity, snack choice and health-related quality of life. The Special Issue also includes a cohort summary and study methodology paper.
