[Weight parameters of various internal organs].
The weight of some organs [brain, heart, lungs, kidneys, liver] was ascertained in a group of 1,598 persons who died a violent death, and a comparison was made with values obtained in a group of persons who died of cardiac insufficiency. The figures found were correlated according to sex with age, obesity, lipomatosis, physical size, the presence and stage of atherosclerosis. --Within the violent death group, a correlation was also made between a subgroup with minimal or no presence of atherosclerosis and one with ascertained atherosclerosis. The average weight of the brain was found to be 1419.6 g in men, 1266 g in women; the heart--394.7 or 343 g; kidney--149.0 g or 124.1 g; lungs 1280.0 or 973.4 g; liver--1770.9 g or 1522.0 g.
