What reading level is Studies in the Sugar in the Blood of Pigeons book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
in series II, 2 grams; and in series III, 3 grams. In terms of grams per kilogram of body weight, the average amount of glucose fed was 4 grams, 7 grams, and 10 grams in the respective series. The ordinary clinical test for carbohydrate tolerance is 100 grams or about 1.4 grams per kilogram of body weight, if the average weight for man is taken to be 70 kilograms. This amount was fed by Cummings and Piness (20), Hiller and Mosenthal (21), Jacobsen (22), Tachau (23) and Strouse, who has also fed... 2 grams and 2.8 grams per kilo to normal men. Jones gave rabbits an average dose of 7.87 grams per kilogram. BLOOD SUGAR OF PIGEONS 161 From the foregoing it will be seen that the amounts given to the pigeon exceed those usually given man in similar experiments. In spite of this, the smallest dose used in the present experiments which is equivalent to one of 1 .75 grams for a man weighing 70 kilograms, had very little effect on the concentration of sugar in the blood of the pigeon. In a man such an amount would in all probability raise the concentration of blood sugar to 200 mgm., and probably induce gly- cosuria.
