Heart rate (HR) and ventilatory frequency (f) were determined at rest in 79 boys and 91 girls aged 0.07-20 years and with a range in heights from 54-198 cm to establish the relationship between decrease in HR and f during early life with increase in body dimensions. From theoretical considerations it is assumed that frequencies such as HR and f are proportional to a characteristic linear dimension of the subjects in minus first power (approximately equal to rho-1). In the present material resting HR and f decreased with increasing height of the subjects according to the equations HR = 6,408 . height-0.9015 (r = 0.8983) and f = 5,969 . height-1.1691 (r = 0.8471). These results suggest that the decrease in resting HR and f during childhood and adolescence corresponds well with increase in body dimensions. A similar equation was developed for HRmax within the range of heights from 149-198 cm. Only a slight dependency on height was observed (HRmax = rho-0.1642, r = 0.3796).
在79名年龄在0.07至20岁之间、身高范围为54至198厘米的男孩和91名女孩处于静息状态时测定心率（HR）和通气频率（f），以确定生命早期HR和f的下降与身体尺寸增加之间的关系。从理论考虑出发，假定诸如HR和f等频率与受试者的特征线性尺寸成负一次方比例关系（近似等于ρ-1）。在本研究资料中，静息HR和f随受试者身高增加而下降，其方程分别为HR = 6408·身高-0.9015（r = 0.8983）和f = 5969·身高-1.1691（r = 0.8471）。这些结果表明，儿童期和青春期静息HR和f的下降与身体尺寸的增加非常吻合。在身高149至198厘米范围内，针对最大心率（HRmax）也得出了类似方程。仅观察到其对身高有轻微依赖性（HRmax = ρ-0.1642，r = 0.3796）。
