Takayasu arteritis is a disease on which many investigations have been conducted to determine its causes, clinical features and treatment, since 1908 when it was reported by Dr. Takayasu. The first nationwide epidemiological survey on Takayasu arteritis was conducted over 3 years from 1973 through 1975 by a research group on "aortitis syndrome", a disease specified by the Ministry of Health and Welfare. Another nationwide survey on this disease over a period of 3 years was carried out from 1982 through 1984 by a research group focusing on "systemic vascular lesion", another disease specified by the Ministry of Health and Welfare. The present study reports on the combined results of these two nationwide epidemiological surveys.
自1908年高田博士首次报告以来，针对高安动脉炎开展了许多研究，以确定其病因、临床特征和治疗方法。1973年至1975年，一个关于“主动脉炎综合征”（厚生省指定的一种疾病）的研究小组进行了为期三年的首次全国高安动脉炎流行病学调查。1982年至1984年，一个专注于“系统性血管病变”（厚生省指定的另一种疾病）的研究小组又进行了为期三年的全国性该疾病调查。本研究报告了这两项全国性流行病学调查的综合结果。
