<title>Abstract</title> <p>Background A subset of children with short stature do not have an identified clinical explanation and are assigned a diagnosis of idiopathic short stature (ISS). We hypothesized that a polygenic score for height (PGS<sub>height</sub>) could identify children with ISS who have an unrecognized heritable predisposition to shorter height.
