After a decade and a half of rapid increase, adult mortality rates in the U.S.S.R. appear to have turned downward. As would be expected given the role played by coronary heart disease in producing this rise in mortality, fewer coronary deaths have been recorded in the U.S.S.R. in recent years. If this trend persists, the Soviet Union will join a number of other industrialized countries that have succeeded in curbing the coronary heart disease epidemic.
经过十五年的快速增长后，苏联的成人死亡率似乎已开始下降。鉴于冠心病在导致死亡率上升中所起的作用，可以预料，近年来苏联记录的冠心病死亡病例有所减少。如果这一趋势持续下去，苏联将加入其他一些成功遏制冠心病流行的工业化国家行列。
