A statistical analysis of atrioventricular heart valve weights of 218 beagle dogs was performed. Applying the allometric function, the correlation between body or heart weight and the weights of the mitral valve, tricuspid valve-angular/parietal leaflet and tricuspid valve-septal leaflet could be described statistically. In the age range between 2 and 81 weeks a significant linear, positive correlation was found for all three parts. The mitral valve and the angular and parietal leaflet of the tricuspid valve show a negative allometry or slower growth rate than body or heart, whereas the septal leaflet grows isometrically. Sex differences were not found. The relevance of such data for the evaluation of certain pathological findings is discussed.
对218只比格犬的房室心脏瓣膜重量进行了统计分析。应用异速生长函数，可以对体重或心脏重量与二尖瓣、三尖瓣角叶/顶叶以及三尖瓣隔叶重量之间的相关性进行统计学描述。在2至81周的年龄范围内，发现这三个部分均存在显著的线性正相关。二尖瓣以及三尖瓣的角叶和顶叶显示出负异速生长或比身体或心脏生长速度慢，而隔叶呈等速生长。未发现性别差异。讨论了这些数据在评估某些病理结果方面的相关性。
