To examine whether there were differences between races in regard to the relationships among element contents in the arteries, the authors investigated the relationships among the average contents of calcium, phosphorus, sulfur, and magnesium in the 18 kinds of the Thai artery. After ordinary dissection by medical students at Chiang Mai University was finished, the thoracic and abdominal aortas, ramifying site of the abdominal aorta into the common iliac arteries, coronary, common carotid, internal thoracic, subclavian, axillary, brachial, radial, superior and inferior mesenteric, renal, common iliac, internal iliac, and external iliac arteries were resected from the subjects who consisted of 12 men and 3 women, ranging in age from 39 to 84 yr. The femoral and posterior tibial arteries were resected from the subjects, consisting of 15 men and 5 women, ranging in age from 25 to 88 yr. The element content of the arteries was analyzed by inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectrometry. It was found that there were extremely significant direct correlations among the average contents of calcium, phosphorus, and magnesium in the 18 kinds of the Thai artery, but no significant correlations were found between the average contents of sulfur and elements, such as calcium, phosphorus, and magnesium. These results were in agreement with those of the Japanese arteries. Therefore, it was suggested that there was no significant difference between the arteries of the Thai and the Japanese in the relationships among calcium, phosphorus, sulfur, and magnesium.
为了研究不同种族动脉中元素含量之间的关系是否存在差异，作者调查了18种泰国动脉中钙、磷、硫和镁的平均含量之间的关系。在清迈大学医学生完成常规解剖后，从12名男性和3名女性受试者（年龄在39至84岁之间）身上切除胸主动脉、腹主动脉、腹主动脉分叉至髂总动脉处、冠状动脉、颈总动脉、胸廓内动脉、锁骨下动脉、腋动脉、肱动脉、桡动脉、肠系膜上动脉和下动脉、肾动脉、髂总动脉、髂内动脉和髂外动脉。从15名男性和5名女性受试者（年龄在25至88岁之间）身上切除股动脉和胫后动脉。采用电感耦合等离子体原子发射光谱法分析动脉中的元素含量。结果发现，18种泰国动脉中钙、磷和镁的平均含量之间存在极其显著的直接相关性，但硫与钙、磷和镁等元素的平均含量之间未发现显著相关性。这些结果与日本动脉的结果一致。因此，提示泰国人和日本人动脉中钙、磷、硫和镁之间的关系没有显著差异。
