Factors Which Determine Renal Weight

An extended study of the linear relationship between renal weight and protein intake confirms our previous conclusion that it is uninfluenced by age. The empirical linear formula, protein intake = 0.0183 renal weight −2.75, proved to be a satisfactory expression of the relationship in normal male ra...
