The effects of mass transfer of a sick geriatric population of war veterans were evaluated to determine the resultant change in mortality. A comparison of mortality patterns by months during this interval made over a six-year period, centered around the month of the move, July 1971. Analysis of the mortality fluctuations in the 24-month interval surrounding the move indicated that the course of mortality during this interval was periodic, with four distinguishable phases making up the complete cycle. An attempt was made to link stress-inducing events before, during and after the relocation with the ensuing mortality. It is important to use planned, low-key, stress-prevention measures and continue them for some time after the move, to offset adverse mortality effects from anticipatory anxiety and from the postrelocation release of anxiety-generated stress.
对战时老年退伍军人患病群体的质量转移效应进行了评估,以确定死亡率的最终变化。在1971年7月搬迁月为中心的六年期间,对该时间段内按月划分的死亡率模式进行了比较。对搬迁前后24个月间隔内的死亡率波动分析表明,该间隔内的死亡率过程是周期性的,由四个可区分的阶段构成完整周期。尝试将搬迁前、搬迁期间和搬迁后的应激诱导事件与随后的死亡率联系起来。重要的是要采用有计划的、低调的压力预防措施,并在搬迁后持续一段时间,以抵消预期焦虑和搬迁后焦虑产生的压力释放所带来的不利死亡率影响。
