    Notes: Abstract Specimens of 27 histologically definite mesotheliomas and 34 proven adenocarcinomas were examined with a panel of 14 antibodies: pan-epithelial antibody Lu-5, anti-keratin-18, anti-keratin-7, Ber-EP4, anti-Leu-M1, HEA-125, anti-carcino-embryonic antigen (CEA), anti-blood group-related antigens (anti-BGR A, B, H), B 72.3, anti-placental alkaline phosphatase (PLAP), anti-vimentin and BMA-120 used to determine their value in the differentiation between pleural mesothelioma and lung adenocarcinoma. Lu-5, anti-cytokeratin-7 and -18, B 72.3 and PLAP reacted in a high percentage of cases with both mesothelioma and adenocarcinoma. Anti-CEA and anti-Leu-Ml did not react with any of the 27 mesotheliomas tested but showed a reaction in 75% (anti-CEA) and 66% (anti-Leu-M1) of the lung adenocarcinomas. Seventeen percent of the adenocarcinomas and 96% of the mesotheliomas showed a positive reaction with anti-vimentin. Ber-EP4 was demonstrated in all lung adenocarcinomas, but only in 2 mesotheliomas in a focal manner (7%). HEA-125 and anti-BGR A, B, H reacted with 83% (HEA-125) and 75% (anti-BGR A, B, H) of the lung adenocarcinomas. The statistical parameters, sensitivity and efficiency were estimated and a normogram for judging the diagnostic power of a single antibody for the differential diagnosis of mesothelioma versus adenocarcinoma was developed. According to this, Ber-EP4, HEA-125, anti-BGR A, B, H and anti-CEA were, in descending order, the most powerful discriminatory antibodies.

    Description / Table of Contents: Summary Based on more than 8000 autopsies of male and female patients without brain diseases the normal brain weight of adult males and females in relation to sex, age, body-weight, and body-height as well as Body Mass Index were calculated. The average brain weight of the adult male was 1336 gr; for the adult female 1198 gr. With increasing age, brain weight decreases by 2.7 gr in males, and by 2.2 gr in females per year. Per centimeter body height brain weight increases independent of sex by an average of about 3.7 gr. Body Mass Index is of minor importance and only relevant in males. Based on these data the independent variables, age and height, were for the first time combined in a nomogram for the calculation of brain weight. The mathematical functions were integrated in a computer program which facilitates the calculation of normal brain weights in individual cases.
    Notes: Zusammenfassung Anhand von über 8000 Autopsien von Patienten ohne Hirnkrankheiten wurden die Normgewichte der Gehirne für Männer und Frauen in Abhängigkeit von Alter, Körpergröße, Gewicht und Body Mass Index berechnet. Das Hirngewicht des erwachsenen Mannes beträgt im Durchschnitt 1336 g, das der erwachsenen Frau 1198 g. Pro Altersjahr nimmt das Hirngewicht beim Mann um ca. 2,7 g, bei der Frau um ca. 2,2 g ab. Pro cm Körpergröße nimmt das Hirngewicht bei beiden Geschlechtern um ca. 3,7 g zu. Den geringsten Einfluß auf das Hirngewicht hat der Body Mass Index, der praktisch nur bei Männern bedeutsam ist. Aus den unabhängigen Variablen, Alter und Körpergröße, wurde erstmals ein Nomogramm für das zu erwartende Hirngewicht konstruiert. Gleichzeitig wurden die Funktionen unter Berücksichtigung der wichtigsten Einflußgrößen in ein Computerprogramm integriert, das die Normgewichte errechnet und quantitative Aussagen über die Abweichung des Hirngewichts von der Norm im Einzelfall erlaubt.
