As stated in the preceding section, the respiration rate per minute showed a tendency to decrease; the volume per respiration has therefore an interest. These volumes are recorded in the last column of table 111. Although these volumes show in a number of instances a slight tendency to decrease, they do not on the whole indicate a profound effect of the low diet. Certain cases, particularly Vea and Gul, show a tendency towards a pronounced reduction in volume per respiration. As a matter of fact, the values for Gul range from 634 c.c. on October 1 and 20 to as low as 399 c.c. on January 21, this being by far the widest difference noted with any of the subjects. Vea shows a range from 496 c.c. on October 8 to 381 c.c. on November 5.
In general, however, the slight decrease in the respiration rate which was noted as the research progressed, accompanied by a similar decrease in total ventilation of the lungs, results in an approximately constant volume per respiration but the data are so irregular that it is difficult to discover any particular influence of the low diet upon the volume per respiration, and one must infer that this remains practically unchanged.
