In the present investigation, 391 men born in 1913 were examined. The blood pressure was registered in a standardized way and the subjects were questioned about epistaxis. The aim of the investigation was to analyze whether habitual nose-bleeders or subjects with recent bleedings had higher blood pressure than the other subjects in the population study. All attempts to find a correlation between epistaxis and elevated (or high) blood pressure were unsuccessful. When high blood pressure is found in a patient with nose-bleeds it is probably an incidental finding and not an aetiological factor.
在本次调查中，对1913年出生的391名男性进行了检查。以标准化方式记录血压，并询问受试者是否有鼻出血情况。该调查的目的是分析在人群研究中，习惯性鼻出血者或近期有鼻出血的受试者的血压是否高于其他受试者。所有寻找鼻出血与血压升高（或高血压）之间相关性的尝试均未成功。当鼻出血患者被发现患有高血压时，这可能是一个偶然发现，而非病因因素。
