Dear Leo:
. The results of our assays of tritium
and estimates of total Trey
“water (TBW) in your éubjecta are enclosed.
In addition to tabulating
the data, we have plotted your blood volum
es and red cell volumes against
TBW. The dashed and solid lines on the
chart are regression lines that
Francis Moore and 1 independently deriv
ed from our own normal subjects.
About half of your subjects are clust
ered about my "normal! regression
line. The other half lie significan
tly below the lines because of relat
ively
_ small red cell volumes, Plasma volum
es appear to lie within tha range
of
my normal values,
Sincerely,
William E, Sirt
