Echocardiographic measurements in normal subjects from infancy to old age.
Abstract
Echocardiographic data from 92 younger normal subjects (1 month to 23 years of age) and 136 older normal subjects (20-97 years of age) were pooled and analyzed to obtain prediction equations for normal echocardiographic values. Using a bivariate regression model with the assumption that variability is constant as a percentage of the expected value, we developed regression equation and graphs that allow calculation of a 95% prediction interval for several echocardiographic measurements as a function of the subject's age and either body weight or body surface area. Body weight could be substituted for body surface area with no loss of precision. Further, examination of residuals showed that the linear prediction model fit well for all ages and all echocardiographic measurements studied. The measurements were obtained using the recently published standards recommended by the American Society of Echocardiography.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
