The blood content of cadmium, copper and zinc was determined at autopsy in 150 cases of sudden death. In conjunction with a previously-published paper on the blood lead level (mean 26.0 mug0/0) of the Viennese population, these investigations should give the basis for the detection and diagnosis of contamination with heavy metal traces in the blood. Patients with such contamination should be followed up at regular intervals. The results are statistically examined in regard to their variation, standard deviation and reliability. The concentrations of copper and zinc correspond with the values quoted in literature (mean 123.8 mug0/0 Cu, mean 722.1 mug0/0 Zn). The higher blood level of cadmium in comparison with the literature (mean 15.9 mug0/0 Cd) might be caused, among other things, by the increased industrial use of this metal.
对150例猝死病例进行尸检时测定了血液中的镉、铜和锌含量。结合之前发表的一篇关于维也纳人群血铅水平（平均26.0微克/0）的论文，这些研究应为检测和诊断血液中重金属微量污染提供依据。有此类污染的患者应定期随访。对结果的变化、标准差和可靠性进行统计学检验。铜和锌的浓度与文献中引用的值相符（平均123.8微克/0铜，平均722.1微克/0锌）。与文献（平均15.9微克/0镉）相比，血液中镉水平较高可能是由于该金属工业用途增加等原因造成的。
