The Poland-US Agreement for Health Cooperation has as its goal the sharing of scientific information in cardiovascular disease epidemiology between the two countries. Patterns of cardiovascular disease and identification of risk factors were investigated through two large epidemiologic studies, the Pol-Monica Study in Poland and the US Lipid Research Clinics Program Prevalence Study in the United States. These two studies are described with regard to methodological issues, comparability of data collection procedures, and demographic and behavioral characteristics of the two populations involved. Mean blood pressure, lipids, and body mass indices of participants in these studies are also compared.
《波兰-美国卫生合作协定》的目标是在两国之间分享心血管疾病流行病学方面的科学信息。通过两项大型流行病学研究，即波兰的“波莫尼卡研究”和美国的“脂质研究临床项目患病率研究”，对心血管疾病模式和风险因素识别进行了调查。本文介绍了这两项研究的方法问题、数据收集程序的可比性以及所涉及的两个人口群体的人口统计学和行为特征。还比较了这些研究参与者的平均血压、血脂和体重指数。
