[Estimation of stature based on the proximal phalangeal length of Japanese women's hands].

The present authors made regression formulas to estimate the stature of Japanese women by the proximal phalangeal length of the hands of 231 Japanese women students. The stature and the proximal phalangeal length produced correlation coefficients ranging from 0.521 to 0.696, and the resulting regression formulas possessed standard errors ranging from 3.59 to 4.27 cm. Our results show that the proximal phalangeal length can be used as a reliable estimator of stature.

[The racial differences of plasminogen A gene (PLG* A) frequencies].

The present authors investigated racial differences of PLG* A frequencies by literature search. From the results of these investigations it was seen that the frequency of Mongoloids was higher than those of Negroids and Caucasoids, and the frequency of Negroids and that of Caucasoids was almost equal. There is a great variation in the distribution of PLG* A in Negroid and Caucasoid populations. Further studies are necessary to obtain more data regarding PLG* A frequency.

Acute cadmium intoxication in inbred mice: a study on strain differences.

Male C3H, BALB/c and DBA/2 mice were injected subcutaneously with a single dose of 30 mumol CdCl2/kg. Most of the C3H mice died within 15 h, while all of DBA/2 survived for at least 48 h. At 6 h after Cd-injection, histology revealed severe hemorrhage, fatty change, zonal hepatocyte necrosis and congestion of C3H livers, while these findings were rare in the other strains even at 48 h post-injection. The rate of metallothionein (MT) induction at 6 h was significantly lower in C3H mice than in the other two strains.
