The mortality data extracted from the USSR official vital statistics available up to the middle of 1988 show that age-adjusted total mortality for adults aged 25-64 years increased from 1969-70 to 1985 by about 0.7 per 1000 in men and about 0.2 per 1000 in women. All the increase in total mortality resulted from the increase in mortality from cardiovascular diseases (CVD) most of which were from coronary heart disease (CHD). More specifically, mortality from rheumatic and hypertensive diseases decreased slightly (0.1-0.2 per 1000), while mortality from cerebrovascular and other CVD increased slightly (0.1-0.2 per 1000). The age-specific mortality at younger ages tended to decrease while in older decades it continued to rise. Life expectancy was about 64 years in men and about 73 years in women. The state vital statistics data are supported by information from the USSR MONICA centres and also by the data on high coronary risk profiles of the population as evaluated by the prevalence of CHD symptoms and the distribution of major CHD risk factors in various centres of the Soviet Union.
从苏联官方生命统计数据中提取的截至1988年年中的死亡率数据显示，25至64岁成年人的年龄调整后总死亡率在1969 - 1970年至1985年间，男性每1000人增加了约0.7，女性每1000人增加了约0.2。总死亡率的所有增加都源于心血管疾病（CVD）死亡率的上升，其中大部分是冠心病（CHD）。更具体地说，风湿性和高血压疾病的死亡率略有下降（每1000人下降0.1 - 0.2），而脑血管疾病和其他心血管疾病的死亡率略有上升（每1000人上升0.1 - 0.2）。较年轻年龄段的年龄别死亡率趋于下降，而在较年长年龄段则持续上升。男性的预期寿命约为64岁，女性约为73岁。苏联官方生命统计数据得到了苏联MONICA中心信息的支持，也得到了根据冠心病症状患病率和苏联各中心主要冠心病危险因素分布评估的人群高冠心病风险概况数据的支持。
