The authors, therefore, propose establishing a reference range for heart weight in men, much like those in use for other laboratory tests including hemoglobin, hematocrit, or glucose. A reference range (95% inclusion) of 233 to 383 g for the adult male human heart is proposed....
Sex is the most important predictor of heart weight. We found that heart weight increases with BSA and age (Table 3). Table 2. The cardiac findings. VariableUnitSummary statisticNormal heart (n=1062)Female (n=361)Male(n=701)P value Heart weight g Mean±SDMedian, Q1–Q3Range 344±74347...

How much blood is in a normal adult human male body? Blood: Blood is a connective tissue comprising of a liquid matrix (plasma), and formed components. One portion of the blood is made out of red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets which are considered solid portions of the bl...
The circulating blood volumes in 155 normal adult men and women were determined by the I131 HSA method. The measured volumes were plotted against body weight, surface area, and the height cubed-body mass formulas. Significant statistical improvement was attained when the data were plotted against ...
Cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) enables assessment and quantification of morphological and functional parameters of the heart, including chamber size and function, diameters of the aorta and pulmonary arteries, flow and myocardial relaxation time
In the largest published reference cohort (n = 323) [61], there was no relationship between maximal non-compacted (NC)/compacted (C) wall thickness ratio and age, gender, race/ethnicity, height or weight. For segment-by-segment (whole-heart) NC/C ratio [56], there was also no si...

Age, weight and height did not differ significantly between female and male subgroups. The range of the diameters for each aortic segment is presented in table 1. A common origin of the brachiocephalic and the left common carotid arteries was observed as a normal anatomical variant in 9 ...
