THE RELATION OF HEART WEIGHT TO THE BASAL METABOLISM AS VARIED BY THYROID ADMINISTRATION
A linear relationship exists in the albino rat between the heart weight and the basal metabolic rate when varied by the administration of active thyroid material. It is suggested that this increase in heart weight which follows the increase in metabolism after thyroid is in the nature of a simple wo...

| Sumario: | A linear relationship exists in the albino rat between the heart weight and the basal metabolic rate when varied by the administration of active thyroid material. It is suggested that this increase in heart weight which follows the increase in metabolism after thyroid is in the nature of a simple work hypertrophy of the myocardium. |
